the car will start and run but as soon as you give it any gas it will die. ---

You need to see a good independent mechanic and have the fuel pressure tested along with the fuel filter. Have them check the entire ignition system as well. ---

You might want to check your throttle position sensor. A bad one can cause this problem as well. It’s the link between your right foot and the ECM. The ECM controls fuel flow to the engine via the fuel injectors.
