Weird problem! Don’t think it is the idle control valve.

If the O2 sensor is bad normally it makes the car run rich. Don’t think it will cause a stall. It will throw a code as the computer recognizes it isn’t getting the correct signal from it.

This is a definite long shot regarding the cat theory - When you drive the car the material inside (guts..:) of the cat shifts around causing it to clog. It doesn’t happen when the car is on ramps and still.
