It's hard to diagnose a stall over the net. There are several things that cause it. For one thing a 93 has an earlier overdrive system that can "lock". That could cause the car to stall at lights. You could also be losing fuel. It's something that you have to feel for. If it's losing fuel it will sound funny because it will run lean right before the stall, if it's the tranny then the engine will strain before it.
