Default 05 5.7l running funny

ive got an 05 ram 5.7l with 150000 on it. started ideling rough like it was going to stall, shifted to n and gave some light pressure to the gas to keep it running. made it to the next light and the same thing happened. once i was moving i got clear from traffic and punched it, all seemed ok but after getting to my destination, i let off the gas to slow down an park and it stalled. started right back up, ran fine and no problem after work going home. any ideas?

When is the last time you cleaned the throttle body and IAT sensor??? Recommended at 30k but I do it at 15k and they are all gunked up then. Stupid emissions standards have the PCV dumping crap into the intake and the EGR dumping unburnt fuel right behind the rear plate of the throttle body...
