Truck stalls at same spot every day.
Any help figuring this out appreciated. For the last couple months my truck stalls out at about the same spot during my commute to work.
I commute almost an hour. I drive country road for 30 mins then the last 30 mins Highway. As soon as I get off the exit ramp and stop at the ramp's stop sign it shuts off. I do notice that if the stop is more abrupt it happens, but if I slow down more gradually it doesn't.
Any ideas appreciated, it's no emergency, truck is running great other than this. No check engine codes are triggered.

I had a similar problem with stalling at stops, especially hard stops. Would start right back up, it was like the idle would drop too low. I tried all kinds of things, PCV, throttle body cleaning, testing sensors. Nothing helped other than running the compressor (A/C or defrost). It kept the idle rpm up enough to keep it from stalling.
Finally I read something about replacing the crankshaft position sensor. So I did that as well as grounding the throttle body. Since that time it has run much better and hasn't stalled again.
Good luck fixing it!
