There is a splice in the wiring about 6" below the underhood
fusebox. It's 3 wires into one, red, red/white. This splice
corrodes over time. It feeds power to the PCM, fuel pump and
ignition. It can cause intermittent stalling and no start. Check it
doesn't cost anything to repair it. Just clean it up, preferably,
solder it together.

most likely the idle air control valve is bad, buy
a new one for 30 bucks and slap it on should solve
the problem

If it is misfiring mostly when under a load then probably it is ignition related - coil, wires distributor, plugs, etc. It should be triggering a code that may pinpoint the problem.
