WHEN I AM STOPED IN MY TRUCK IT WILL IDLE UP AND DOWN AND IT FEELS LIKE MY TRUCK IS GOING TO DIE. IT ALSO SEEMS LIKE WHEN I'M NOT ACCELERATING THAT THE TRUCK WANTS TO DIE. EVEN IF IM JUST SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN OR JUST EVERYDAY STOP AND GO TRAFFIC IT DOES THE SAME THING. WHAT COULD BE SOME POSSIBLE REASONS FOR THIS? AND WHAT CAN I DO TO FIX IT?

You can check the throttle position sensor and the mass air flow sensor.
