Default Stumble Issue

Hey guys wondering if you can help me out with a problem I'm having. Whenever I come to a complete stop (at a light or stop sign) the truck stumbles likes its going to stall. It dosent stall out but its really anoying when it does it. Does anyone know where I can start looking or maybe suggest an idea that they have done to fix this issue. The truck is a '01 5.4L 4x4. Thanks.

Go out and rev the truck up a little, when the RPMs drop back down if it goes under idle and acts like its gonna stall I would check into the IAC (Idle Air Control Valve)

Thanks guys

I'll go and rev the engine to see what that does. Also, is there a way to test the coils so I would know which one is bad if there is one?

Edit: Searched and found how to test the coils
