Stalls are complex. over 50 ways to stall any gas engine.
first is not doing a tuneup.
then.
1: lost 12vdc power to EFI system (dash goes dead)
2: lost engine compression
3: lost spark
4: bad fueling. (too much or too little can stall any engine)
early 4L engine has EGR and it can stall any engine.
and on all 4L, he ISC loves to stick.
so the #1 test, is , can you save the stall, with a fast right foot.
no one ever answers this.... sadly.

Have a code test done (most larger parts houses will read codes for free)
Get yourself either a haynes or chilton manual and look up any codes and find what they are related to. Manuals will also list individual tests to components that you can do using a decent multi-meter.
Most common cause of a problem such as yours is either a failing crank position sensor or fuel pump but it can be caused by many other items including a loose connection at the ignition switch, coil etc. (why testing is important) Wish there was something simple like a "stalling out switch" you could replace, but there isn't!
Good luck and post back if you have a specific question about an individual part or system!
