Could be alot of things. For starters i would look at the tcc solenoid. It should be located on the side of your tranny. If you unplug this and it goes into gear and runs fine then you found your problem. If this solenoid goes bad it prevents your tranny from downshifting and staying in a higher gear.

Have a 2001 cavalier.... Starts fine now idles but when put into gear it stalls?

Possible torque converter clutch issue. Is the check engine light on? If so, have it scanned for transmission codes. If the torque converter clutch is locked up when it isn't supposed to be, the vehicle will stall. Another thing to check is for coking on the throttle plate. Remove the hose that goes from the air filter box to the throttle assembly and look inside the throttle bore to see if it is dirty/black. If so, use carb cleaner and a toothbrush to clean while holding throttle plate open and remove as much carbon deposits as possible. This can affect minimum idle airflow and also cause a stall

Stalls when put into gear

many things can cause this. the most common problem would be that the timing is slightly off. (fixed sometimes by adjusting the distributor) it could also be a bad fuel pump (or clogged fuel filter) this would allow enough fuel to run the engine in park but not enough to run the engine under stress. clogged air filter could also cause this (not allowing enough air into the cylinders). I would change the air filter and fuel filter. then crank the vehicle and slowly turn the distributor (finding the best idle position) then see what happens. lastly replace the fuel pump.

Engine only stalls when in any gear also when floored engine cuts out at 3000+ rpms

it sounds like a crank sensor if the vehicle stalls in any gear or when cold its most likely a crank sensor. located near the bottom of the engine. there almost always behind the balancer pully for the crank shaft

When you press on the gas when the truck is running, does it rev up?

Did it die while driving down the road (foot on the accelerator) or when idle? - If so, try cranking it and get your RPMs up to 1500-2000 RPMs and put it in drive (with your other foot on the brake). See if it will continue running if you never take your foot off the gas.

Check your idle air control valve. My 88 K5 was idling very high because the fooking thing was stuck in the open position. Good luck.

no its not the crank sensor if it were your car would not even start. your problem most likely is the idle air control valve, try removing it and and cleaning it if it does not help it will have to be replaced.

My 1992 chevy s-10 blazer, starts, but dies out when in gear.

Sounds like it could be a mis-fire. At an idle, remove a plug wire to see if it stalls. If it does, re-install it and go to the next one. If you remove one and get no change, that cylinder is the problem. Test for spark.
