My first thought is that it could be the fuel filter or even the hall pick-up. UPDATED ANSWER: Most likely and (thankfully) an easy fix is your idle air control valve. If you're like me, you most likely give it a little gas when you start it, which opens the throttle, allowing air into the engine. As soon as you let off the gas and the throttle closes, your engine has to rely on the idle air control (IAC) valve on the back of the throttle body for air. If this valve is faulty or simply clogged, it's probably behind your stalls. First try to clean it with normal carb & choke cleaner and a SOFT nylon flexible brush. The IAC valve is very easy to damage. After removing the air filter housing, the IAC valve will be in the rear center of the throttle body. If cleaning doesn't fix the problem, a replacement can be had at most auto parts stores for around $50 - $75. Obviously not cheap, so DON'T break it if it isn't already broken. Hope this helps :)
