My 1992 Ranger has a problem where it dies easily when accelerating from a stop when it is first running. I will start it up in the morning and let it warm up for a minute and it will pull out of driveway fine with no hesitation, I will than drive down my side street to the main road. As I go to pull on the main road it will die if I give it more than just a little bit of gas, It will than not restart until I press the gas pedal all the way down. Once the truck gets moving above like 10 mph I can floor it and it drives great with no problems and the problem will not come back until the next time I start it cold. This truck has been my daily driver for the last 6 years and I have never been able to figure out what causes this, I stay up to date with all the maintenance for it and have replaced just about everything on the truck at one point or another. The problem has always existed. I am getting ready to sell the truck soon and I would like to figure this problem out before I get rid of it, it has left me in some pretty dangerous situations when it has died pulling across an oncoming lane of traffic. Any advice as to what could be causing this?

Thanks
