Dying when car getting to normal Running Temp

Guys, please help me, My 1991 SOHC 3.0 Maxima, dies when it gets up to normal running temperature. It cranks back up and drives great on the hwy. This happens only when am at normal running temperature and coming to a stop after it's already running temp.

Auto? Check vacuum lines, especially to the surge tank.

check your vacuum lines, with it idling spray brake cleaner on your vacuum lines. when you hear the idle pick up, you know where the leak is. otherwise it may be the distributor

After warmup, does it shut off only when idling or when cruising as well? Is it hard or easy to restart after it shuts off?
