engine stalls and dies, help!

I've had my 900s for a year and it has run great, until now. Twice in the last week my engine has suddenly cut out. Once, it caught itself before dying. The second time it died, and the car would not restart. Both times seem to be between shifts. Mechanic said it could be a) ignition module b) ECM or c) crank sensor => parts and labor $1700 (half the value of the car!).
Is there any way to narrow down the problem? It seems ridiculous to replace redundant parts. And what if they are wrong!!! and it is something else. What else could it be?
Car in otherwise nice shape (92 900s, 86K, looks good). I would really appreciate any help I can get on this. Thanks.
