Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.
The idea that it stalls as you described could be a few things. However, the first suspect is there is an engine vacuum leak. Have you checked? Also, can you keep it running by slightly pressing on the throttle?
Here is a link that explains how to find vacuum leaks. Do this first and let me know what you find.
