Engine Performance problem V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 117000 miles

I changed the battery and now the car stalls at idle. I've noticed that I'm not the only one having this problem so I'm wondering if anyone has figured out this weird situation.

This is normal for the computer to lose its idle memory when the battery is changed, just drive it and it will relearn and it should be fine. Here isa guide to help you
