Sounds to me like the crank position sensor first.  Then it sounds like 
it could be a few possibilities regarding the stalling/surging.  I 
would start with the crank position sensor AND the speed sensor "while 
you are in there."   They are next to each other.  There are a few 
posts a few back on this subject.  Then I would move forward in the 
trouble shooting.
