1996 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 5.2L engine. Truck stalls when my foot is off the gas once engine temp is about 140 (it starts cold, then dies while idling if I try to let it warm up) Once truck is at 200 temp it runs fine, no stalls, no dying. When it dies, the oil light comes on and it will not start right away, but will after a few minutes. Usually starts and dies a couple times before I can drive it by holding accelerator and brake at the same time. Have done Seafoam cleaner in gas, replaced throttle position sensor, cleaned throttle body and idle air control valve, replaced PCV valve that was bad. I also had the battery tested. Please help?
