When I first come to a stop the engine idle down like it is going to die then in a few seconds it gose back to a normal idle. It dose this when I first start the truck too.
I did a new battery because it just die.

Have you checked for vacuum leaks? Also, has the check engine light ever come on while it was running?

Let me know.

I would start with that. Check for vacuum leaks and let me know what you find.

Thanks for using 2carpros. Com.
