Stalling
My truck is an automatic but it stalls sometimes at low speeds taking tight turns like getting in and out of an parking space for example. What could be the problem?

sounds like idle air control valve..there is a needle in there that needs to move , its probably full of carbon etc... making it stick. some carb cleaner and a q-tip works well.
