Car Won't Stay Running
alright, so i recently posted about the car not turning over but thats fixed and now i move onto another problem... the car does not seem to want to stay on. it'll idle for a while and eventually shut down or immediately shut down as soon as i put it in gear unless i feed gas into it. I can drive it aorund the block and everything as long as im constantly hitting the gas and not letting the rpms drop.
if anyone has any idea why the hell htis is happening let me know.. i thought it would be the throttle positioning switch but i changed that and there's no difference and recently replaced to get it started were the spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor and ignition module. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks
oh yeah i forgot to mention it's an 89 305 iroc tbi.

Is the SES light coming on while the engine is running?
If "yes", have you checked the trouble codes?
