Default 2003 Caravan stalling

Hi- new here, and I have found other threads abut my problem, yet has anyone come up with an answer to this:
My caravan stalls and idles up and down, especially in the morning. Put it in gear and as soon as I try to go forward, it instantly dies, sometimes only once, then ok. Always starts right back up. Always feels like it wants to die when the engine is at float. Does not throw any codes. Never a problem under acceleration. Likes to buck under deceleration. Has a new computer and dealer done tune up. Dealer has proven to be incapable. Help! Thanks!

Have you checked for vacuum leaks?

No vacuum leaks found. Some days, it is fine and you'd never know it had a problem. Other days, it stalls at every stop lite- always just as you take your foot off the brake and go to step on the gas.
