Everytime I press on the brake peddle the engin dies. I removed the vacum assist for the brakes and plugged the lines but it still stalls when im driving. If I start to let off the brake before it stalls it will stay running. I tried unplugging the brake light switch but that didn't work either. Any Ideas?

Is this happening while vehicle is moving above 5MPH or while stopping?

Thanks for responding,

The engin dies only when you are moving above 5 mph but not when you press the brake peddle while parked
