frequent stalling problem

Its a 2003 E250 van with a 5.4. When you come to a stop or sometime while slowing down it will stall out but it starts right back up. You pretty much don't notice it stall as it doesn't shake or miss before it turns off. Its rather annoying though whan you go to pull out from a light and its not running lol.

Sounds like a bad IAC valve. Idle Air Control. This controls the idle speed and they get old and stick and/or slow to react causing stalling or erratic idle.
