Stalling if not warmed up

I own a 92 buick skylark with 132,000+. I just replaced the fuel pressure regulator to fix the stalling while idling, but now the car stalls if it is not warmed up for 5 to 10 minutes. It seems as if the accelerator pedal fails to work while it stalls. I thought maybe a throttle position sensor. Any ideas?

Hey lz
P1441 refers to an issue in the evaporative system, specifically evap purge, some causes could be the evap purge solenoid, evap canister and related vacuum hoses. I would have to recommend though you take this to a trusted repair shop for proper diagnosis, special test equipment is needed.
