Sorry Guys:
About a year ago the D started to stall, after a month it would run great but only for 15 minuets. I changed:
1) Fuel pump.
2) ignition Coil.
3) Up-graded PCM (PCM checked and OK).
4) Changed TPS.
5) Changed Mass Air Flow Sensor.
6) Changed Temp Sensor.
7) Changed Crank Sensor.
8) Changed Idle Air relay.
I was shooting in the dark because they was no code reading on the computer. After about $2500 I came to point where I would have bite the bullet and scrap it. The D sat in my yard for a year, I put a new battery in it and it ran for 15 minuets. When I put the battery in I noticed a sensor under the battery so I unplugged it and the D does not stall any more!
Does anyone know what that sensor is?

battery temp sensor, is used to calculate a few things, one of them is battery charging rate, if that battery heats up too much it slows down the charging, sounds like it was reading a high temp at the battery and stopping the charging, hence the battery was being drained, when it got too weak the truck would stall out.
