slight stumble at stop

I have noticed that my 07 4.2 will sometimes seem to stumble like it is running out of gas when I stop. This isn't all the time, just once in a while, and not for very long, two or three seconds. Has anyone experienced anything like this? The truck is an automatic, 11,500 miles, and usually the A/C is on.... Sound familiar to anyone?

Seems like somebody had a simliar problem recently with a fairly new F150 w/ 4.2
I think I remember Idle Air Control or a vacuum leak problem.
I'll see if I can find it......
