Here's an epic thread on that issue: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/2016-...stalls-398344/

TL;DR -- there are many possible causes, but most folks find it's some combination of gunked up or malfunctioning VCT solenoids, cam phasers, or the VCT oil screens in the ends of the camshaft. Or sometimes just worn out or dirty oil, if you're lucky. Find someone who knows how to diagnose cam phaser behavior in real time using FORSCAN.
