When the car stalls check for the fuel pressure at the time of the problem. Also does it fire right up if you use starting fluid.

I have seen the main computer relay overheat can cause this issue, I would swap it out to see if it helps the problem. Also here is a guide to help you understand the problem and what other issues can cause this symptom.
