This could be a lot of things. one of the tests that you need to run is shift it into nuetral when you are stopping and see if it still drops RPM and wants to stall. This will eliminate or conclude that it is a transmission issue. If it is still doing this then it could be a vacuum leak or fuel delivery issue.
ok and XL 7 but what engine options. gas, diesel, 2L , 2.5L? what? and most important , and never ever 1 time stated on this forum what country. leaping?
im not sure what you are saying. it runs ok cold, and as it warms , the engine. it stalls.? and what does same thing mean.? my guess, it starts fine then stalls; hot. but can you save the stall?
stalling is complex. can be many systems in the car. but can be broken down to : Ever did the 60k mile tune up,ever? if not why not. never skip 60k\'s or the motor will run like garbage.
1: lost electrical power. to EFI . 2: bad engine, in that when it gets hot , it loses compression. 3: lost park. 1 or more cylinders, 4 or 6 you never said. 4: bad injection. 1 or 6 of them, flooding or starving. 5: bad fuel. 6:EGR sticking , usually this happens just before a stop sign. 7: if the stall was a bog and the fast right foot saved the stall, easy the ISC is sticking closed.
the problem you are discribing would lead me to belive your fuel filter is clogged which is a simple fix 3 dollar part at any part store or on the worse hand your fuel pump itself could be weak you can open the gas tank cover and have another person turn the truck key to the on position without going far enough to start you will hear a faint whining noise if it is going bad or a louder noise if it is fine Good Luck
