87' TPI 305 Running Issues.

I have been working on my Camaro for a bit now and have run into an issue that has me stuck. I start the car and let it warm up for a bit. All seems well so I take it for a spin around the block and still good. So I decide to move the car from where I was keeping it to my house across town. About halfway there something happens. I came to a stop at am intersection and when I tried to start accelerating it seems as if any movement of the throttle at all chokes the engine. Its a total loss of power. The only way it will return to running right is to shut the car off for a few minutes and then start again. I am so lost on this and really need some help. Thanks.
