I will try a little lube first.. See if that helps at all.
Fritz, tonight when I "accidentally" noticed, the truck was warm.. Had just drove 20 miles or so.. I'll put a eye to it and see if everything seems good and free.. I don't think that water is my problem, I have a water separator, and do my best to drain it on a regular basis (and not that stock thing that was all boogered up when I bought the truck.. )
On another note, the cold idle solenoid you mentioned doesn't work as it should. The "solenoid" is junk.. I probably should fix it.. I get power through the temp sensor, but the solenoid won't "push" out to increase idle speed.. I know it has to be adjusted to function as it should, but it won't kick out, so I've never adjusted it.. (believe it or not, I have invested in a service book.. Sure has made life so much simpler more than once.. )
Thanks again for the input guys.. I'll start with small steps.. Like lubrication (and getting that noisy alternator looked at LOL)

The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
