Stalling
Under Estimated

I have a 1998 Ford Excort ZX2 and lately I've been having some stalling problems. When I apply the brakes, normally a little harder than usual, the car stalls. I don't get a CEL light and the car starts right back up. Is there something wrong with a sensor somewhere? I'm not sure where to look to find the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Should I look into the IAC? Simple to remove and clean?

check the basic airl/fuel filters, might have a clog

Sure it's not a low oil shutdown due to slosh on braking? Check the oil level.

Could be the one way check valve in the vacuum line going to the power brake booster. Should be able to blow into it to the brake booster but not able to blow into it to the motor. That is whats wrong or the brake booster diaphram may be ruptured.
