I am experiencing a similar symptom. When idling at a stop light, the tach reads a steady 1K idle, then suddenly the engine just dies!. And after I fuel up, it sometimes gets worse, bucking while I try to accelerate and "hiccups" as Ryan describes. This leads me to think it may be a fuel filter/dirty fuel issue, which is where I plan to start since it's cheaper than other fixes.
Plugs all look good, and car runs great otherwise.
1998 900SE 2.0 turbo - 114K miles. Other than regular maintenance, only unscheduled repairs have been new power steering pump and water pump and alternator.
