May need 1 0r more coil packs replaced,or it could be what happened to my 2000 4.6---1 lifter expanded out and wouldnt collapse,causing the rocker arm to fall out of place and the valve could never open...try unplugging 1 coil pack at a time while running and listen for a change in the way it runs,if there isnt a change then its probably a bad coil pack,find a cylinder that runs and swap the coil packs,if no difference then its probably the valve staying shut.

Truck runs smooth but when you stop at a stop light or stop sign it will die sometimes

I recommending cleaning the idle air control valve. It get clogged with black carbon and doesn't work properly. It is easy to do and cheap. I understand it should be done periodically. I cleaned my husband's Ford F-150 IAC valve and solved the problem he has been having for, literally, years. My Toyota highlander '02 started acting up and I cleaned mine...worked like a charm. You use throttle body cleaner (spray).

2001 Ford F-150 Revving at idle.

Notorious for vacuum leaks from failed hoses/tubing/conectors.Some of these are very hard to see/access.Check for this and be sure fuel filter is fresh. Look at fuel pressure. Check MAF sensor for dirt that has bypassed air filter. Good luck! Rate me please.
