It starts and runs great until it's warmed up then it dies/ stalls when idle at a stoplight, etc.

No. But have cleaned throttle body and still have no idea. It would make more sense to stall when cold but not when warmed up.

Actually, in the old days, yes. Today, there is a temp sesor that tells the computer how rich to make the fuel mixture based on outside temps and coolant temp. Have you checked the EGR valve to make sure it is working? Also, have you checked for trouble codes?

Let me know.

Glad to help. I just hope it does. Make sure there is no carbon build up in the intake as well as the EGR. Also, check vacuum hoses to the EGR. I have seen them plugged too.
