Check the transfer case fluid. If it's super dirty, It may be the cause of the "miss".

IMHO, dirty transfercase fluid doesn't cause engine to shut off.

crystalkjones, you need to read diagnostic codes to identify the source [or point you in the right direction] of the problem.
Did these symptoms start after some work on the car?

I had first hand experience with the same problem on a AWD X3. No codes, just a recurring loss of power during acceleration that resembled a "Miss" that was usually associated with a bad coil, spark plug, fuel filter or pump....etc. It is usually the most overlooked fluid change from what I have researched, because it is the hardest one to work on.

I am not sure about the stall, but it's possible that the car has more than one problem.
