Default 2000 V6 stalling

Anybody know what could cause a v6 mustang to stall out when its at a complete stop. When im driving the car is fine, once i come to a light or stop sign the car idles down real low then shuts off.

02 Sensor? Check vacuum lines also....Does it start back up fine? or does just idle rough all the time?

yeah once it stalls it starts right back up fine. I did just replace the battery like a day or two ago, do you think the connection could be loose?

ur idle speed maybe too low and have to be turned up, its a simple turn of a screw. but be careful with that, have somebody who know what theyre doin do it.
if it was fuel or elecrical, u wouldnt start right back up, it would take a min.

Yeah, just clean the filter or change it depending on if you have a CAI or just the stock filter and check your vacuum lines. That caused one of my old cars to f**k up.
