can you keep it going if you tap the gas to keep the revs up or does it die regardless?

it’s more than likely your idle controller located on the manifold, make sure it’s plugged in, check for errors codes woudl be a good idea too.

no fuel lines are okay i think it might be crank angle sensor…  
im goin to attempt to time the engine… than start up again…  
im hoping this is the problem also gunna look over the wiring again…

but if anyone else knows the problem, let me know that would be great…

Thanks
