I replaced my battery recently. After doing that my truck now stalls when turning and sometimes it stalls when stopping. I replaced the fuel pump, fuel pump relay switch, and fuel filter. And still stalls.

Hello,

So this stalling thing is new? It never stalled before you changed the battery? What made you change the battery to begin with? Seems to me that you must have done something while changing the battery to cause this problem. Did you change these other parts because of the stalling? I would make sure your battery cables are tight and the battery hold down is actually holding the battery firm. Maybe the battery is moving and the cables are losing connection because of it. If all that is fine then one thing that could be making it stall like that is the inertia switch. Double check that stuff and let me know and we can go from there to checking the switch. This guide can help as well.

Please check out the added guide above, when you change a battery out it can take a bit for the computer to relearn the system. Also I would service the throttle bore. this guide can help you:
