Stalls after warmed up

So I know I have an exhaust leak and I need a coolant flush and an o2 sensor, but my car begins to idle weird when it warms up then stalls. It sounds like the car is revving then stopping and it does that about three times then the car shuts off. Could the three problems listed above be the cause?

None of the things you mentioned could cause idle problems.

Idle problems are generally due to vacuum leaks or TPS problems.
