Default Truck dies out

I have another problem here it goes... So I got in my truck today and I started it and it sounds a little weird but just thought it was a something stupid so I head out and when I get to my stop sign my trucks acts like it wants to die out when I stopped so I keep going and I went down the road a little ways and once again I get in the turn lane and it acted like it wanted to die out again so I am going through the shopping center and came to a stop sign and I stopped and my truck died out this time and I tried restarting it and it did for a second and then died out tried again an it wouldn't stop soni waited a few second and the same thing so I waited a sec and this time tried starting it and it did as long as I was pumping the has pedal and when I stopped cause it started truck died.. I think I know what wrong just want to see what you guys think

Try cleaning the IAC. ANd remove the negative battery cable before doing so.

Have you downloaded the manual and looked through it yet?


And Coke is only good for one thing, and that's mixing it with Captain Morgan. LOL

Well that sucks, can't help you there. Other than to say AAA is only $75 a year and 100 miles towing included.
