Stalled out?... What?!?

Truck has been running fine for the past few weeks(I think I got most of the bugs out... finally). But a few days ago I got behind a really slow car, after the light turned green, I couldn't go at idle speed because it was too slow, I was feathering the pedal to keep from ramming his backside(I was struggleing to keep it under 1000rpms... gives you n idea of how slow this guy was) Anyway, after about 50 feet of this my engine groans like it does on a cold morning(a weak idle that sounds like it doesn't want to play until it warms up a bit), sputters and stalls out.

Has this happened to anyone? Could this be a sign of something serious lurking under the hood, or do I just need to pass illegally under these circumstances?

Re: Stalled out?... What?!?

No, it's idling fine. What it is, is when I barely touch the accelerator, it gets very rough. Under normal circumstances it runs almost perfect(still a few bugs), but accelerating too slowly causes it to stumble.

I haven't checked to see how lean I am as of yet, was a bit too busy over the weekend.
