I believe if you have a short you should blow a fuse. But if your engine is dying you probably have a bad alternator and/or battery.
make sure body ground to motor is still connected.
This happened to me in a 95 Toyota tercel and the cause was for the most part dirty battery connections, when the electrical load was raised the alternator could not immediately keep up and required a moment to adjust, but with a bad battery connection (probably the Positive in my case) it couldn't temporarily draw enough power from the battery to still fire the spark plugs hence the immediate stall.
