Your saying that you replaced all those components to try and solve the issue of your truck stalling?
Are you getting any codes, is the check engine lite comming on?
I would look at the throttle position sensor TPS (APS), next I would go to the dealership and have them check the ECM.
This should tell you if your having an electricle issue some where. Loose wire or what not.

My best best bet would be either a bad TPS or a bad ECM.

good luck

no i'm not geeting any codes or a check engine light i was informed that it could be the asd relay which i changed or that the computor needed to be flashed i think i might try the throttle position sensor but i figured that if it was bad or not working correctly that it would throw a code or make the check engine light come on.

I think at this stage in the game the best option might be to bring it into a dealership and see if they can diagnose it. The diagnostic fee would be much cheaper than throwing parts at it IMO. Good Luck though, and keep us posted on what you find out!

i've had it in the dealer 3 times for this very problem and it still does the same thing but i'm hearing bad repor about that perticular dealers service and repair facility so i will try the tps switch and if that does not work i will choose another dealer to take it to but i will keep all informed on the outcome.
