What is your question?
When our truck is started it acts like it floods itself and often dies immediately. After it dies one time, the truck then starts up just fine. What is the source of this issue? A new throttle posistioning sensor was installed recently, but the issue remains unsolved...please help !!

No specific issues come to mind for your Suburban. You could have a fuel pressure issue, an engine control sensor issue, a idle air control valve fault, or some other mysterious fault. It may be helpful to have a fuel gauge and scan tool connected when the problem occurs. Looking for anything out of spec may lead to the cause of your problem.
I had this problem it is the PMD. you need to replace it. It gets too hot and shuts off the fuel. I have a diesel, replaced no problems with stalling.
The 7.4L engine in speedbump's 1996 GMC Suburban 2500 is a gas engine, therefore it does not have a PMD as pafarmer's diesel engine does. Speedbump, if you have corrected the stalling condition with your Suburban please let us know what fixed the problem.
I had the exact same issue. It was the fuel pump. It wasn't delivering enough pressure. 60$ and a dropped fuel tank later it runs like a top!
