I would suspect a spark ignition timing problem. If the car starts but the engine stalls, it's probably not the charging system (battery and starter motor).

One thing I have noticed about my '92 SC300 is that it is very sensitive to the flow rate on its oil filter. I've tried to use cheaper filters, like a Fram, and the flow rate is too low for the car to sustain combustion and it idles very rough. I use only Mobil 1 oil filters now and no problems.
