Dave:
Has the check engine light ever come on? As far as the stalling, does it happen at any given time regardless of throttle pressure? If you allow it to sit and idle, will it stall? If so, have you checked to see if the fuel pressure is dropping? As far as spark, have you checked the crank sensor?

The ck engine light has not come on. It has never done it befor. It just died. You can start it and it dies no idle time my be 3 seconds. And you can start it right up and its dies and its starts right up an it dies. It has no crank sensor.

Check fuel pump pressure and check to make sure the IAC is working properly. Let me know if you can keep it running if you give it gas.
