At the very minimun you should remove the throttle body and clean it out. After remove the fuse out for the ECM in the engine compartment andleave it out for a couple of minutes. Reinstall te fuse and road test for a bit. Also with the amount of miles you have, your PCV system could be plugged up as well but you would need to have it checked out. If the PCV is plugged then that will also cause some issues with it stalling.
