Will the same thing happen if you loosen the oil filler cap?

No, the car should stall ALWAYS when you pull the oil cap off.... Here is
the secret. The idle stabilizer circuit can compensate for the oil dipstick
pull, the engine will lose rpm, then the ISV will recover.... If there is
another leak (or you pull the oil cap) you have created too much of an air
leak, and the ISV can't compensate for it.... Car stalls
