Have you checked the glow plugs? I don't believe there is a whole lot you can do about this otherwise, it is just a result of the compression getting lower with wear. I don't like it how it stalls there, perhaps you aught to do a compression check. The injection system is completely mechanical, no solenoids for idle. There may be an idle adjustment screw, but that'll change it all the time (don't recommend this). There is a chance it could be a result of your fuel, do you use any additives? I don't think there is anti-gel in diesel yet so this probably didn't help the cause. I normally give it a little throttle (just enough to hear the idle change) for the first five seconds or so out of habit then it is fine, it probably would be if I didn't but would be running slower.
