I looked on the search & found nothing to relate to this problem I have. My truck dies pretty often at red lights, stop signs, and sometimes while turning and slowing down. I have no bad vac. leaks, & everything checks out fine, except this weird thing w/ the throttle. In an effort to replicate the stalling while idling in my garage, I jammed the throttle linkage down (accelerate), & let it contact the throttle stop again. It stumbled a bit but never died. the linkage is a bit sticky, & I can relax the linkage slowly & it will hang up w/ about 1/8 inch of space between the throttle stop. If I jam it again from this position (1'8 inch open) & then force it shut it will die completely.It will not restart , even w/ throttle input. If I get out of the truck again & set the throttle to the same 1/8 inch open, it'll restart! I repeated this scenario several times. My wife will kill me if she has to drive like this tomorrow, please help!
