don't know if you said anything about reseting the ecu but do that. if you still have a problem, check all the injectors make sure the connection is strong, if good move on to all grounds, if good then check plugs. if good, then check the ecu wires have they every been cut? really what i am getting at is check everything lol.

But how would the TPS be the problem if it revs fine out of gear?

have you checked the fuel pressure and volume? if the pressure is low and the pump isnt producing the volume, under a load the engine will react as you are describing.

i just dont understand when it isnt in gear it revs and idles perfect everything is great but as soon as it goes into gear and starts to move it just like stops getting the fuel to go. ive went thru the injector clips and tried to check for leaks as best i can and checked the harness. idk ill look at it tomorrow

put a fuel pressure gauge on it and check it, lmk what the pressure is. i just had a car with very similar symptoms, checked the pressure and it was a little low, did a volume check and it was way low. put a new pump in it and now it hauls ass. g/l
