So has there been no definitive answer to this issue?
I am dealing with a similar stalling issue:
If I slow down to come to a stop, doesn't matter if im in any gear or in neutral, as soon as I stop it will cut out, sometimes before im stationary (at a VERY low speed).

Any advice is appreciated!

The first thing I did was pull the water pump housing...
