New guy needs trans help!!!

I am looking at buying an 06 mega cab 2500 but it has some tranny problem. When you shift from park to drive it wants to die but if you give it some gas and get the truck moving it does fine. It shifts through every gear fine but as soon as you stop the truck dies. Does anyone have any ideas?

Doesn't sound like a trans problem. More like a fuel delivery issue. Any Codes? CEL on?

FCA is a part on the injection pump that controls fuel flow (IIRC).

Not sure it's the injectors, I'd have someone take a look at it for sure. Could be expensive, or a $100 fix as mentioned above. Does the oil smell like fuel?
