This depends on alot of things my suv would idle fine in park while ac or heater was on but would stall in gear and would run fine in park or in gear if ac or heater was off the problem lied in the throttle body of my vehicle small particles had built up around the (butterfly) and was not slowing enough air to pass while at idle in park with ac or heater on I pulled the breather hose off opened the butterfly with my finger (caution these parts have sharp edges) and cleaned with gumout carburetor spray ( note engine was turned off) and u should replace your air filter while your at it ( assuming your vehicle is fuel injected)

It depends on the gearing of the car. If you are in the highest gear and 40mph in that gear is under the idle rpm of that car than you will stall.
