Engine Dies in Idle

1990 E-350 7.5l/460
Last night I drove about 38 miles no traffic and came to red light, when the engine just died in nuetral. It started right back up immediately, and since then the only other time it died was when I had to brake really fast at a red light. It always starts right back up. I just had the timing belt and belt tensioner replaced 2 weeks ago, and sometimes now I notice my timing is just a tad high, but I only noticed it last night. Up until then, everything was normal. I also notice the transmission (e4od) shifts gears a little late, I have a higher rpm before shifting to higher gear. I'm pretty sure it's all electrical, but I want some advice as where to look.
Cheers
