This is my first vehicle, and I'm having issues with it. when you first start the car, if you don't touch anything, it stalls right out, as if someone grabbed the key and turned it back off. if and when i get it running, and attempt to put it into reverse or drive, it stalls. if i manage to get it moving, and stop at a stop sign, it stalls. it just started happening after i received another vehicle as a gift, and now i cant even operate the 93 safely. please help

Update from Dec 7, 2011: Had a friend hook it up to a machine, TPS is bad, have to replace it at the tune of $60 bucks

Update from Dec 7, 2011: have to fix throttle position sensor.
