Lexus LS 400 Engine Problem

It does not happen all the time, but when I drive my 1995 Lexus LS400 on a highway for a long period of time (at least 1 hr or more) at high speed when I slow down (exiting from the freeway); the RPM goes to ZERO and the engine shutoff. I put the transition on NEUTRAL and turn off and turn on again. The engine is fine and I can go for a long time.

Do you have any ideas what? I have taken it to the mechanic and they could not find anything wrong with it.

Thanks,
Carlos

What is the idling speed at operating temperature?
Did you check for trouble codes?
