I have a 91 gmc sanoma 4.3 automatic. It idles fine in park and nuetral but dies when you put it in gear. But only when it gets hot. I've already replaced the alternator, battery, egr valve, throttle position sensor, idle air control valve, new wires plugs cap and rotor air filter. Please help me out.

scan for codes and check fuel pressure first with a gauge if this is atbi unit then check under it for a vacuum leak as they blow the gaskets there. spray choke cleaner under tbi front and back while idling. if it changes rpm it's leaking.
