Default shuts off only when stopped, but not all of the time...

My car ('92 Camaro RS) runs stronge...but in the last week it has began to shut off once in a while when i come to a complete stop ...there is a little bit of stumbling but its mainly a very quick shut off... not much warning. It does not shut off going down the road only at stops...Im considering the fuel pump, baffle, or converter...i dont know! has anyone experienced this?!
(just want to include that the distributor, cap and rotor, fuel filter, idle air valve, throttle position sensor, MAP sensor, air charge sensor, air filter, wires, plugs, and ignition coil have all been replaced in the last 5 months) WHAT COULD IT BE!

What motor/induction do you have? Any codes? Also, don't rule out the above sensors you replaced, just because they are new doesn't mean they can't be bad.

its an rs so it has a 305 tbi in it. remove the tbi and completely clean it. go to an orielly's if at all and a get a 10902 kit. it is a complete tbi rebuild kit for 23.99. make darn sure you clean the iac port to. the iac is what controls the idle for the most part. and then check the tps voltage to make sure it is right.

Default EGR valve.

If it stalls after highway driving (above 50 for a few minutes), but not when the engine is cold or when only driving on surface streets (below 50) then it is the EGR valve/system. Easy to replace, but not cheep. Check the vacuum lines to the EGR valve and the wiring to the solenoid first. Get it from a wrecking yard to save money, but make sure it is the right one look for an (N) or (P) or no N/P at the end of the numbers stamped on it. Make sure this matches.
