I have an 88 cutlass ciera. I had a shop tell me it was the computer but I replaced the computer and the car still wont run. What it is doing is when you push the gas it will die. And wont run

Check and test the throttle position, manifold absolute pressure and crankshaft position sensors-also do a fuel pressure check
