Running rough

I have a 98 supercab f-150 4.2 v6 five speed with 140,000 miles. It idles rough there is'nt any hesitation when get on the gas and there is not a loss of power. You can not tell that there is any problem when your are on the gas but once you let off to let it idle it runs rough. It has been doing this for a couple of months. It has also died twice right after I started it in the last couple of months. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If your plugs and wires are good(changed in last 30k), then I would suspect the Idle Air Control Solenoid, or the MAF sensor.
