We repair the engine and the engine works fine but no take off. We changed the fuel pump, camshaft sensor and air flow sensors too but still no change. When we make drive it wont go and with parking when we press the pedal fast it turns the engine off. Can you please help us

Check the back pressure from the cat converter. It may be clogged and need to be replaced
