Default F150 stalls when i stop; starts right back up

The engine light was coming on and going off without any noted pattern. Recently the truck has started stalling when i come to a stop - not constant - very intermittent. The truck starts right back up without any problems.

The truck runs and performs great other than what is noted above.

Default F150 stalls when i stop; restarts fine

Pulled code p0506 (idle air control system rpm lower than expected) from the computer; cleared it, but returned in no time. Feels like it has a bad plug? Help!!!

FYI, my '04 was doing this same thing (exact symptoms); I changed the fuel filter and it stopped doing it. I thought about the filter, because just prior to this, I had ran a couple of bottles of HD injector cleaner through the fuel system, via the gas tank. I think a lot of junk clogged up the filter? Maybe not the fix in your case, but just a thought, as this drove me nuts for a month, before I figured it out.
