I have a 98 Ram 1500, 5.2L V8 that is having problems. After I accelerate and take my foot off the pedal, the engine rpms drop down below 500 and then the truck stalls. Sitting still the truck idles fine, right around 900rpm. If I slowly let my foot of the gas until I reach idle it doesn't have a problem either.

I've had some problems with oil pressure as well. Is it possible that the oil pump (or something else) is creating excess drag on the engine.

Any ideas would be great. Thanks
