Check your PCV valve tube (to the right side of the top of the engine. When mine did this, the tubing for the PCV valve had dry rotted and cracked, thus losing pressure and stalled the car. Ford parts department has these at any dealership if that is the problem.

I had a similar problem. I found the filter cartridge below the pcv valve had carboned up, and after the crank case pressurized, oil was forced out the pcv supply line to the throttle body. The idle air control valve solenoid got oil in it and caused my problem, but only when it was cold. The pcv cartridge is accessed by removing the pcv valve and the rubber fitting that the pcv valve mounts in. It can then be fished out with a pick set, and it is a pain because you can't see it, but you can get you hand back there. I hope this helps you.

This generally is your throttle position sensor or Idle speed control motor. The idle is controlled by the Power Conotrol Module/computer & shouldn't really require adjustment at the throttle body if the components are installed & working properly.
The symptom you are describing is a textbook example of a failure in one of the parts listed above.
As always, I suggest you do check your air filter & fuel filter if not changed recently, use an OBD II tester to provide you with any engine codes that haven't yet triggered the "check engine" light. Some single codes don't trigger the light & some do, just a good check you can usually have done at a local auto parts store. Free as a rule from some of them. They want to sell you the parts! Good luck.

for the oil pressure guage issue you need to change the oil pressure sending unit.
