Default 1990 chevy 4x4 on propane dies randomly

Once it's warmed up it will die when I stop at a light or if I'm turning and not giving it gas?

If it is running on propane, sounds like vapor lock. Check BOTH the return, and supply lines for routing next to or close to a heat source (i.e. exhaust) or sharp bends. Is the propane system aftermarket?
