Default Is it my TPS?

My car has a problem where it dies randomly when I put the clutch in and I am slowing down to a stop. I have replaced the IAC and I thought that it fixed the problem but apparentlt it didn't. It doesn't do it all the time just every few days.

Could this also be my Throttle Positioning Sensor?

i would immediately suspect the TPS but you can test it with a multimeter to see if it's within range. does the car have any other drivability problems?

Nope that is the only problem. I got a TPS to put in, but the TPS bolt is stripped so I can't get the thing out.

I got it on and it seems to be working. If that isn't it the stang is going to a mechanic and then to a new owner. 13k miles and giving me stupid *** problems. I just need to get a new bolt. I stripped the one on top.
