Welcome to AF !
What engine does your 93 GA have? IS the dying only when its hot and only when you stop?

Looks for dry rotted hoses on the air intake. Mine had a similar problem and I had to repace a 3 inch piece of vaccume line.
Also you can go to AutoZone and have them chrck the codes (free).

Re: Car tryes to quit at stop signs?
Some folks that I have talked to mention just to disconnect the TCC connection temporarily when you are not ready to bring it to the shop to replace the TCC or replace it yourself. However, disconnecting the TCC connector will suffer your fuel efficiency. Again, it could be just a vacuum hose rubbing on a hot surface and getting holes etc.
