try driving it around some if possible...i've had idle come back to normal after a maf or battery disconnect with some driving around and a few start cycles..
If the starter doesn't work out, I would be highly suspect of a bad battery to block ground cable. try connecting one black jumper cable lead to negative battery post and other end to block next time as a test bypass.
could be several things...first thing is to rule out bad battery cables. get battery charged and tested at auto parts store (free) if bad get new batt. then, as a test connect one end of a black jumper cable to batt negative and other end of black jumper cable to block somewhere and try...
do a diagnostic gauge test or have shop do for you like one below. if it's good, good...if not see if shop will re-address issue. if they won't, initiate dispute process with credit card issuer...get issuer to send you an email confirming it's in process....then take copy to shop, they will get...
as a test connect one end of a black jumper cable to batt negative and other end of black jumper cable to block somewhere and try cranking...if it starts you have a bad negative battery cable..common on these models. can do the same thing from batt pos to starter pos post and try cranking..if it...
yeah, the spray test is just to show if spark is jumping out...wont show problem with wires to coil connector..except maybe to cause a misfire...need to check coil signal wires in harnes and i believe each bank has common ground...you can try splicing into one ground wire with a piece of wire...
hmmm...at this point i would check the integrity of cyl 6 coil connector plug and the 4 wires i believe it has feeding into it. you may have to take some tape off and see it there is a chafe...perhaps seal up where wires enter connector with some sealant..from your symptoms....fine when...

Ahh, i see. Well, the loose cables are a common fail so hopefully it will help others that end up on this post tracking that problem. Good luck on your quest. I had it and my co-worker had it and spacers tightened things right up.
My money is on loose cables..there is a fix in forum post link below. it utilizes a spacer to allow more travel of rod/cable through adjuster bracket under bottom of truck. a stack of nuts with an inner diameter large enough to slide up and down threaded rod will also work in lieu of spacer...
