Truck runs great, but stalls at stoplights/signs. I need to keep my foot on the break and give it a little gas when i'm stopped to keep it from stalling out. I've had the plugs replaced and a tune up. It's the only issue I have with the truck. Nit sure if it's a sensor or bad fuel filter. Would ga s type make a difference

The fuel type shouldn't make a difference. Have you checked for vacuum leaks? Have you checked the idle air control valve (IAC)? The IAC is responsible for maintaining the engine idle speed.

Let me know.
