Inspect all your vacuum lines, particularly the rubber tubing end portions that join the nylon tubes to their connecting points on the engine. While it's uncommon for the rigid nylon tubes themselves to break, it's very common for the rubber segments on the ends that connect the nylon tubes to the engine to rot and crack out of site, appearing fine on visual inspection while being nearly severed. The inertia of stopping or turning may flex the tubing at the cracks, causing the engine to stall out. It's a good idea to check Fiero vacuum connections a few times each year now that the cars are older. The higher than average temperatures in the Fiero's mid-engine compartment cause parts like this to deteriorate more rapidly than in other cars. Consider replacing all those rubber portions at the ends at once since it's cheap to do, requiring only a couple feet of tubing to replace all the ends.
