If it wants to stall it sounds like it has too much fuel and not enough air so that sounds like the throttle air opening is sticking closed a little. I would try cleaning the throttle body with throttle body cleaner. Also, I would lube the throttle cable a little where it goes in and out of the shield near the throttle body with some lithium grease.
