anybody have an idea?

i have a vafc so i can watch the volts and when i push in the clutch and let the rpm's fall the motor will turn off but sometimes it will just fall to around 12.0-12.5 then slow climb .1 at a time back to 14.1 so i dunno

Check for a vacume leak, when you step on the brake manifold vacume drops.

Think it's possible your battery is kinda iffy and not taking a charge well - so when the RPM drop when you clutch it may be going under enough power for the spark to cut stalling out the engine.

I'd try a diff battery and see if the problem persists - or better yet get both the alternator and the battery tested.

Damn i went through that not too long ago. one of my cells in the battery went dead. Changed the battery along with the cables, my car never stopped again, BUT my rpms are low, due to the fact my timing is a bit off.
