Default 12 valve cummins stalls out when startin or idling

12 Valve Cummins Stalling Out please help
I have a 1995 ram 2500 with a 12 valve cummins and I'm having some issues with it starting and idling such as at stop signs or red lights. I started having these problems when I bought it. Basically, when you start it you have to keep givin it gas or it stalls out and it won't even fire at all if you don't give it gas while tryin to start it. It used to do this and then start up fine and run good but now it won't stay running and I don't trust it riding down the road. I've read about the fuel lines rotting out and heard it was fairly common, but I don't know how to check if that what it is. The truck is an automatic, and is completely stock with no mods or anything. Thanks for the help in advance
