My truck runs good until it warms up and I either take my foot off ofthe gas, or cometo a stop...then it dies andI have to restart it, often several times.
Q; Is there a "low idle speed screw on this truck (1500) andif so, where is it located?

Curb idle speed is determined by the computer and not manually adjustable. Has the check engine light come on? Also, have you checked for vacuum leaks?

Let me know.
