Default New problem, feels like it's gonna stall when driving...

So I've got a new issue as of yesterday, when I'm driving on the street the truck feels like it's gonna stall randomly while driving. Doesn't do it on the freeway or under heavy acceleration, just driving on the street at street speeds, mostly slower. My first thought was trans slipping but the engine would speed up then not drop in rpms rigt? She doesnt actually stall just kind of loose rpms and momentum and then go like normal. Cant tell if its while shifting or what, too random and so far no pattern to it. Any help is appreciated.

check your throttle linkage adjuster right by the TB. I had the same problem and it just lost adjustment and all is well now

Next time it feels like stalling shift into neutral and see what happens.
Do the rpm level out? Does it stall?

It's so quick Its back by the time I can react. I did have it do it in 3 at a constant speed though.

Well the throttle cable was very loose, I'll see on my way home if that was the problem.

actually its not that, i had a suspicion that it was gonna be fuel related...it is. i left work and as i was getting on the freeway i lost my fuel pump. i'm thinking its the relay thats sitting under the leak in my windshield....if you need glass, dont go with safe lite, it's been a nightmare since they touched it...

If you got water leaking on your relay, it is probably shorting it out or you may have corosion build up already.
