    Had a similar issue. I read the codes and it was mostly coming with a Thottle Position issue then codes for all sorts of stuff (manifold pressure, etc) all kind of related to the sampe issue. I searched and found others with same/similar problems. So I bought all the pieces (EGR, TPS, Ignition switch, maifold pressure switch) I started by replacing the TPS and haven't had an issue since. I'm planning to replace all the other components soon just haven't taken the time to do it yet. I also had an idling issue at the same time, hence my thought to start at the TPS.

    I have had this happen on the freeway a few times, as well as coming up to a stop. It's usually after cruising with the cruise control on and then disengaging it. The only codes I ever got were related to the MAP sensor - replaced it - has stalled a couple times since. Seems to happen more when it's cold but over the last for years it has happened maybe a dozen times total. A couple times it restarted itself, others I have had to manually do it. At speed on the freeway you can throw it in neutral and turn the key without having to pull over (assuming it then restarts...). I tried the jiggle-the-key thing to make it happen (if it's a bad switch) and that is not my problem.

    I too am considering the TPS and EGR sensors.

    This happened to me but to the extreme. Pretty often while not on the gas it would stall. MAP sensor was the code but it wasn't the problem. Turned out I had 1 bad coil pack, not sure which one because it wasn't throwing the appropriate code, but since replacing all the coil packs the problem has stopped and it's been almost a year since the fix.
