Stalling out in neutral 140-160

I'm having a mysterious problem with my '72 164E, and I'm hoping it's not the computer (which I switched out less than a year ago)...the car has started stalling out in neutral--no stuttering, sputtering or other noises. It simply stops. I've been able to restart, but it has not turned over as quickly as it normally does. It's only done it 3 times (in 3 days).

The idle is set properly, and I just replaced the hose going into the idle control valve (which had been split). The idle up control for the A/C is new, and works fine; the A/C has not been on when these stall-outs have happened. The points and distributor are both new.

Any thoughts?
