It sounds like your throttle plate is open. What kind of carburetor are you running and when was the last time you cleaned it?
Check the Fuel Cut Solenoid on the carb. Instructions how to do that are in the emissions FSM.

And about a month ago I ran a hole can of sea foam.
Thing that connects to green plug on carb.

What exactly am I looking g for on the fuel solenoid?
Test it.
You don't necessarily have to remove it, but when 12v is applied to it, you should hear it click. But if you remove it, you can inspect the Oring too.
When the ignition key is turned to ON, you should hear it click.
When the key is turned to OFF, you should hear it click.

There is a full thread on this..... it is known by multiple names; dieseling, running over, run-on, etc.
Look for the thread about the stumbling, hesitation as there is some very good information in there.
If this truck is new to you then I would start with some baselining items like getting new plugs, wires, cap & rotor and changing everything over. Ensure that timing is set properly (FSM has procedure) and possibly run a can of SeaFoam through the carb. Normally dieseling over like you are having is due to improper timing. On my truck, she likes to diesel over if I have bad fuel in it (87 octane) but runs just fine with mid-grade. I have other issues with my engine though that require a more lengthy repair so I choose to pay the extra $1 or $2 for the full tank of mid-grade over the cheap stuff.

Look under the clubhouses tab to see if you can find a local club.
