If it runs ok at rpm but will not idle, it may be the idle speed control. What do you mean the engine is very loud? Is it loud like an exhaust leak or is it knocking? Could also be a clogged catalytic converter. I would try cleaning the MAP sensor before going any further.

"Very loud" is pretty vague. What do you mean? My step son had a Dakota with the 4.7. He said it was making noise right before it threw a rod.
