2000 ford explorer problems stalling

When I start my truck it seems fine, when I put it in drive it idols low, when I attempt to drive it it will have a hard time in a low gear and stall, higher gears work fine. If I put it in reverse it stalls immediately, any help would be appreciated. I am thinking it could be the IAC but would like some more input from someone that may have had this issue before

SOURCE: stalls when put into gear

Its possible it could be other things causing the problem, but seeing as you've checked most of the likely causes, it is most likely your Torque-Converter. The lockup clutch in your Stator-Fan located inside the Torque-Converter could be siezed, causing the car to stall.

1996 ford explorer stalls like it ran out of gas

It sounds like a weak fuel pump is causing the occasional stalling, particularly when attempting acceleration at normal driving speeds. It's not unusual for it to idle with no problem if the pump is weak. Also, check the fuel lines to.from the fuel pump. If all else fails, you might consider adding an auxiliary fuel pump to counter the weak OEM pump.
