What do you mean? Does it fully shut off or stall?

1. Check the air filters, as they will more than likely need replacing.
2. Change the fuel filter if you have not done so in a while.
3. Add fuel injector cleaner to the gas tank.

I would check the vacuum line going to the brake booster and any other vacuum lines you find. May be an intake leak also. Check this with ether ( sparingly it’s highly flammable) and see if rpms go up. If it does you found your leak. Does it seem to do it when turning? My 05 did this and it turned out to be the egr valve was shot. If you do change the egr, make sure the tube going from it to the intake isn’t clogged. And no check engine light or codes but egr was bad.
