Default Occasional stalling at low rpm

My wife has a 98 1500 Ram Van 3.9l. Occasionally when she starts out from a stop it stalls out. I took it to Advance Auto to have them read the codes and they said it read "Ignition Coil Number One" They didn't give a code. Not sure what this means. Any help?

The stalling from a standing still position is usually the result of a bad throttle position sensor (TPS).

That would make more sense. I was mainly confused by "Ignition Coil Number One" I've never heard of more that one ignition coil. I can only assume they read something wrong or I heard something wrong.

Anyway, thanks. I check that out.
