Default 12v Stalling Out

Sometimes when the truck is cold if I put it in gear and go to move, if I come off the throttle itll just stall. It also did it last week when it was warm, I was hooked up to a stump and was pulling it out and when I let off the throttle she just died. Im pretty sure I know what it is, my idle is low, usually idling around 650-700 in gear when it is warmed up. What else would cause it to stall after being revved up like that. Sometimes it does it when I powerbrake it and throw out a little cloud for the boys too... then it stalls and it really looks like a POS . Low idle the cause?

There's a good chance it's low idle. I would try bumping it up and see how it goes.

Mine was doing the exact same thing, with my idle in about the same place. I'd say mine was around 650-700. Bumped it up to 850 and it was a new truck. Just be careful of the condition of the adjustment rod, mine was so rusted I broke it and had to get a new one.
