Stalling / Low rpm reading on tach.

So im going home after work today, while stopped at a red light look down and see my tach. dropping, next thing i know engine stalls. I put it in neutral and start it up, same thing happens at the next light, again i restart it.
At the next few stops everything seems ok.
Does not make sense to me, i just turned over 9000 miles and never had this problem.
Because im on call for jury duty this week, will have to wait till next week to take it in.
I tell ya, the color of my blood is Ford blue (we have 3 fords and i have had many more), but i must admit with the new brake rotor replacement, clutch packs, temp. guage and now this i am getting a bit disolusioned with this one.

There may be an updated PCM calibration for your stalling concern. I'd also guestimate that the vacuum line at the VMV may have liquid fuel in it, temporarily flooding the engine out, but that's 5.4s.
