I had the same from, this especially can happen with fuel injected cars. Some main things you want to check is the timing belt if its off setting or mot, or maybe your fuel filter or fuel pump. These could be some of the problems that cause your car to idle.

Sometimes a car stalls when driving though water because water got sucked up into the engine. This can cause a lot of damage, so don't attempt to restart the car after it stalls. Have the car towed so the engine can be stripped down and drained of the water.

What could cause a 1987 Lincoln Town Car with a 5.0L EFI to stall out?

A failing or bad coil can cause an engine to stall. After cooling for a while, it is often possible to restart the engine. A fuel delivery problem could also cause stalling. For instance, if the car usually only stalls when the engine is under a heavy load, the problem would probably just be a clogged fuel filter.
