Help! Easy for you.

My 1990 F250 truck stalls when coming to stop, but only when the AC is on. The idel slows and the oil pressure drops then the engine dies. What problems with the engine should I check for first for a possible solution? Details; 1990 Ford F250, 4-speed(man), 5.0 EFI

The computer is supposed to compensate for the AC load by manipulating the Idle Air Bypass valve. This valve may be sticking or need cleaning or replacing. I had the same problem to a certain extent with my EFI 300, but when I went to the 351W, it doesn't care if the AC is on or not, it idles right on!!!
