Check your Idle air control motor, it might have died on you, that or it may be carboned up. It is located on the the throttle body with a plug in connector and 2 bolts holding it on.

+1 for that, also check what your vacuum is. You might have popped a hose loose, it would have to be a large one though to kill the car.

Is this a new problem? You could up your idle a little till it stops shutting off if its not the IAC
