Default Dodge Ram engin shutting off.

New hear, and I am hoping someone can help me. I seemed to have stumped my mechanic.

2000 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with 115000 miles that I trailer with. It is starting to stall while driving or idling at a light. It does start right up again but sometimes remains sluggish. There are no codes registered and the electric still works once the engine has shut off.

I am at a loss, I dont' need this to happen while I am trailering. Help, all thoughts are appreciated and will be tried if I haven't tried it all ready.

+1 on all that, I'd say crank sensor too. And fix the other issues. If the plenum is blown, there is a good chance the cat is clogging up when hot too.
