The code is primary ignition, so you're looking into the right things. I would check the idle control valve, or the distributor which needs to send a signal back to the ecu. If it doesn't, it will stall. Wouldn't hurt to swap out the other coil too. Does it just go and turn off or does it slowly die out. Any more info would be helpful.

Thank you very much for replying I really appreciate your suggestions. In answer to your question the vehicle just shuts off suddenly whenever I come to a stop. Sometimes there a pull back on the vehicle. Anymore help would be greatly appreciated.

Replace the idle air control valve.
