Re: 98 taurus dying at stops??
Sounds like your torque converter clutch is remaining locked as you approach stops. This means your wheels are essentially locked to you crankshaft, so as you stop the wheels, it loads the engine, stops it rotating, which causes it to stall. Not sure what the common issue or fix is. Maybe a new solenoid?
