While my vehicle is in park or neutral it will idle at 800 rpm's and when I press the gas pedal the vehicle will instantly try to cut off if I press the gas pedal very slow and pausing the vehicle may reach three thousand rpm's before it tries to shut down the vehicle basically can only be driven under its own power

You need to have the fuel pressure checked first. If that is ok, you may have a clogged cat converter. Either way, you need help from a shop that can pinpoint the failure and give you a bid.
