You should keep the solenoids plugged in but unplug the vac source so the ecu still thinks their working. Not sure if that will make it stall but it's a start. Past that check for vac leaks.

Sounds like a really bad vac leak if its surging. If you have a buddy, you can use light throttle pressure to keep the car goin for a second, see if you hear any hissing near the mani or tb.
You didnt reuse the TB and intake mani gaskets right? They arent really reuseable.
It could be other stuff but usually if its a leak that bad you can hear it.
