Some low/no cost options:

1.Check the AMM plug connector for looseness. SHUT OFF engine before disconnecting or reconnecting. Be careful of the pins inside too. Throw in a dab of dielectric grease. Mine on my 90 came loose once and it took me awhile to find it as I was on the road...

2.Wait a minute, one more thought. After it stalls try jiggling the wires directly behind the battery. Try it before and after it starts. If this has any effect then it is highly likely that you have a bad 25 amp fuel injection fuse and/or fuseholder. The fuseholder is usually black/orange and located about 6 inches behind the battery towards the driver. Blade style fuse inside. My 90 has it and I believe most, if not all, 90's have it but maybe not as it is the last year for these foolish things!

BTDT with both of the above........
