What you describe is exactly what my Deuce is acting like. I can't wait to see if this solves the problem. It has done it from the day I purchased the truck. Every stop, low idle, sometimes recover, sometimes not. I would have to tap the accelerator to keep it running. Now, after warm up, low...
Found a Parker pump and it's on the way. Good thing I have cool neighbors, truck is sitting in our cul-de-sac. Now the HOA I belong to, different story!
