Does the engine stall when sitting still at an idle?

No. The engine does not shut down when at idle speed. Thanks.

My first suspect would be that you are losing fuel pump pressure due to a dirty tank. There is a sock at the bottom of the fuel pump. I have seen them get plugged and not pick up fuel when in a turn because the fuel level drops.
