Check idle speed sensor as the motor is still under load while slowing down. Try placing tranny in neutral before slowing down and see if that improves the situation. Check the idle speed while stationary and in gear. It should drop 100-200 rpm under neutral idle but any more and I would be looking at idle speed sensor .

94 Lincoln TC engine stalls when slowing/stopping

Most common cause of stalling for Lincolns in that era is the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). It regulates fuel mixture, idle speed etc. A bad TPS will usually act up in one of two ways:
  1. When cold, car continually stalls
  2. When warm, car stalls when slowing down (especially if AC is on)
As far as valve cover oil leak, it's a problem that should be addressed to keep oil from fouling your spark plugs but highly unlikely to be the cause of your stalling problem. Hope this answers your question. All the best.
