Ok so i was driving home and i had to get the trash can in so i threw it in the bed and then i thought to myself, i don't remember turning the truck off. So i got back in and sure enough it cut out, dash lights on and everything. This isnt the first time, it happens when i shift into park and reverse. The idle goes below then above then below then it cuts (i notice this in park and reverse gears only, as far as i know).

Whats the cause of this?

Thanks!
 






Any codes? Check engine light on?
IAC valve, ERG valve sticking, vacuum leak (probably @ the elbow)
