I understood that but I didnt know what number code it was. If I had that I could look in Alldata and see what the diagnostic procedures were. Thats why I was asking. But it looks like you guys got it worked out

I misunderstood what you were asking. Lets hope he has it fixed, but I doubt it if it is still stalling.

When the truck shuts off, does it studder or anything before it shuts off, or is it very similar to just turning the ignition off?

Is it worse when the truck is cold?

The idle air control (IAC) valve could be carboned up and failing.
Or it could be related to the TP sensor?

If none of those possibly the EGR system?

I would reccomend taking it to your local dealership and have them plug in a diagnostic tool to figure out what's going on. Plus they will probably update your trucks computer too.

Not sure how much they would charge you for that- but it may be worth it.
