Is there's mechanic in the house???

worse case scenario I've seen trans go out with those symptoms.... just to prepare you for the worst.

Your symptoms cover a really broad range of possible problems.

Yeah but I'm trying to narrow it down but ill check those tomorrow and attempt to clean the injectors

No. Never figured it could be anything electrical

[eklikewhoa]

you pulled the cap & rotor to check it?

[jwh0818]

When you hit the gas is it jerking really hard?? Like jerking then stoping then jerking and stopping again?

Yes it does. Then it dies and I can start it right back up

This is exactly what my integra did...I did a complete tune-up and I mashed the pedal a couple times before I cut it on and it worked perfect

[jwh0818]

Do you have a shop somewhere? Or somewhere were you can look at it? No one can tell me what it is and God forbid auto zone. They couldn't tell you how to start a car

[eklikewhoa]

Okay I can tell you that the canister doesn't work. The vacuum lines bypass the can to give the egr the corect vacuum. If it was miss firing, wouldn't it run rough? And it doesn't run rough. That would mean its not anything to do with spark and vacuum. Right? Also would the fuel pump slowly start going out because it does shut off only in gear when you give it gas

burnt out plugs would cause a stumble in some cases.
Vacuum could also be causing the symptoms as well.

Again, it's hard to guess what it is without checking the truck, can only give answers based on past experience.

Nevermind. Check engine light. The light doesn't come on at all when it shuts off. This truck has OBD 1 and I can't find anyone with it

With an OBD vehicle you can still pull codes through the CEL flashes, it will flash a series of codes when triggered. I forget how but it should be online. There are OBD readers that read backwards for the Non OBDII vehicles.

Think by '92 they switched over to mass air and no longer ran speed density.
CEL check engine light.

There's a lot of things that could have gone wrong whether a simple problem or major, hard to tell by just guessing and not properly diagnosing the vehicle.

Some simple things to look at though...
Spark plugs/gap
rotor/cap
EGR vacuum lines
EGR opening/closing
"Coffee can" vacuum lines
Fuel Pressure

Okay I tried the tps and it didn't work. I have no clue what a CEL is and it has very good vacuum. I CAN put it in drive and slowly go and then floor it a couple time and it goes but still shuts off when you stop and then go. I also have removed the whole throttle body and cleaned it very well and it still doesn't work
