Well what happens sometimes is when I start my truck sometimes after starting it just stall unless I put it in to gear and move an inch. After that I can put it back into park or any other gear and it will run fine. When I went to get an oil change I was talking to he mechanic and he said its most likely some kind of safety switch.
