    1988 chevy truck starts fine, put it in gear and it dies unless you mash the gas
    Chevy 1988 truck 5.0
    My truck will start and run, but once it is warmed up and you put it in drive or reverse it dies, it will not stay running. If you put it in neutral or park it idles fine. If you put it in drive and stomp the gas it will drive, but when you come to a stop sign it will die, unless you put it in neutral.
    We have replaced: rebuilt throttle body with injectors (2), air control value replaced, MAP sensor, TPS sensor.

    Any suggestions?

    Replacing the Ignition Control Module (ICM) should solve the problem. At AutoZone it's part no. DR140, $39.99.
