Default 97 Accord: I stop=it stalls. I am going to drive it off a moutain!

I have a 97 Accord. It stalls when I slow or come to a stop when below 1/2 a tank.
I can shift into neutral and immediately start the car normally. But it is frustrating to have to do so much maneuvering when making a turn.
I have also had several codes. I have had cyl 1 and 2 misfiring pretty regularly. Once all four had misfired and I had a code like p1300 which was a ‘multiple ignition system failure’.
I have replaced plugs and wires in an attempt to care for the misfires. The problem remains.
I just can’t figure the stalling out. I have tested my 1/2 of a tank theory on ten tanks. The problem always starts at 1/2 a tank and I am able to drive it until the tank is empty as long as I restart it at every stop.

you cleared the codes after that right? what codes are popping now? go from there. I would change the fuel filter, if you havent already. if no other codes, i would read the FAQ thread on cleaning the IACV, FITV, maybe check your base idle.

did you try taking your foot off the clutch?
/sarcasm.
I had these issues with 93, but it was the oil pump failing..doubt that is what is happening to yours.
