If not haveing the EHA connected cures the stalling problem then you can be somewhat convinced that there is a problem with the computer or one of it's input sensors (O2, coolant temp,... ) or the EHA itself. The EHA is the only mechanism by which the computer can make adjustments to the fuel mix.

If you have a volt meter you can read the duty cycle between pins 2 & 3 at the X11 diagnostic connector. This signal is representitive of the leaning or richening being made by the computer, through the EHA. This measurement is made somewhat eaiser if your multi-meter has a duty cycle function, but it can be extrapolated by measureing only volts.

But before we go down that path try disconecting the EHA to see if that affects your condition.
