5000TQ deceleration and stalling

Vacuum leak?  This _could be_ temp related as I've had hoses which expand as they get hot, then essentially close up again once they cool.

This may not be suspect #1 but it's easy to check for generally......

My 1988 5ktq has an intermittent problem where it sometimes stalls upon deceleration.  If I "blip" the throttle a couple of times as I see the RPM's heading toward 0, I can avoid this problem.  So far, I've disconnected the deceleration valve to no avail.  It seems to do this only after the vehicle has warmed up so I suspect it is temperature related.

Does anybody have any ideas of what to try next?

Thanks in advance.

Mike
