Terry,
A couple of questions:
Is the idle normal and then drops, or does it go immediately to 500 rpm?
What is your normal idle speed?
Does it restart right away after dying?
Have you tried setting your idle screws up a little to maintain a slightly
higher idle speed?
Have you got gas (in the car's tank) just before this happened?
Does it do this when cold, or when hot, or both?
If you suspect the valves, as I don't, you can readjust them cold.
