    THat idle seems a bit low, It should be idling around 550 or slightly higher. Are you getting any misfire codes or any other codes?

    I would start by checking/replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Probably give the MAF a good cleaning too

    I'm trying to remember the config of the 5.4 and it's not 100% fresh in my mind, but it will be somewhere between the air filter and throttle body. There may be YouTube videos of people cleaning theirs.
