Stalling every once in a while in traffic,I am concern it will create a accident while driving at slow RPM.Paul reply ASAP
Clean the throttle body bore and plate of any carbon that restricts airflow.
Most common cause is a bad TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). The TPS controls your throttle speed under all conditions. Another possibility could be either the MAF (Mass Air Flo) sensor, or a dirty EGR valve but TPS usually cures your problem.

Most common cause of stalling for Lincolns in that era is the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). It regulates fuel mixture, idle speed etc. A bad TPS will usually act up in one of two ways:
As far as valve cover oil leak, it's a problem that should be addressed to keep oil from fouling your spark plugs but highly unlikely to be the cause of your stalling problem. Hope this answers your question. All the best.

This sounds like a common Camry problem. After driving my vehicle for about 20 minutes in highway traffic, the vehicle has difficulty idling when I slow down behind another car or turn a corner. This quickly deteriorates and then the car actually stalls when I slow right down or
Then usually the car starts again right away, but when I slow down again, stalls. Then when I start it up again, usually in traffic, I can’t get the shift into Drive. If I allow it to sit engine off for 3 – 5 minutes, it starts again, the shift can slide into shift, and the car goess off again, like nothing happened.
