Try cleaning the throttle plate on both sides with choke cleaner as well as iac hole if yo uhave one. Scan for codes and check fuel pressure

My 2000 ranger truck did same thing. Weird. It would stop running everytime I stopped at stop signs or red lights. But, I figured out that as long as I kept it above a quarter tank, it never did it. So to this day I have always put gas in at a quarter instead of near empty and it has been fine ever since. Also, if you change out the fuel filter you may fix issue as well. Good luck, Marcpilot1
