problem seemed to start when i parked the car at a slight angle went to start it and the car would not run or even idle at first got the car home and i replaced the fuel filter and also the muffler and tailpipe because they were blown out this allowed the car to idle faster but still would die when car was put in gear i than replaced the throttle body gasket and as i had it off i cleaned out the pc valve port and put the tb back on i also replaced the pc valve and the two base gaskets for the air cleaner the car still doesnt run and will die when it is put in gear am wondering if anything would of happen when the speedometer cable was replaced a few days before the problems started i have not been able to check the fuel pressure but it does seem like the injectors are spraying nice and strong was hoping someone could give some insight to the problem thanks
