Hi there,

first, this code is for a bad catalytic converter. Even though you changed the O2 sensors, if you are still getting this code it does indicate there is a problem with the converter.

Second, you may have a faulty mass air flow sensor. Sometimes when they fail it will cause the car to stall because the computer doesn't make the right fuel mixture.
