Engine stall while driving in traffic- test your knowledge!

Yep, thats what happened. Forgive the generality of my question but anyone have a clue as to why? Here are a few sketchy details: I just bought this 1990 900S 82k. It looked to be in pretty good shape but I'm a first time Saab owner. After it cut out, I rolled it back down the hill (its a 5speed, against traffic) and sat it in a flat driveway. It started back up. This happened to me once before on a flat street last week, while in neutral and at a red light. Also, the 'check engine light' turns on on startup, but turns off promptly. When it stalled the battery and oil lights came on.
Any clues? A chance it could be connected to oil levels, gasket integrity? How about electical? Engine flooding, idle level?
Thanks for all of your help!
