ok i have a 96 talon with a 6 bolt turbo swap. i have the 2g automatic transmission. i just recently took it to a trans shop. they replaced the torque converter and pump. now my car idles great but as soon as you put it in gear it dies. once in a while it will run for a second a shake real bad then die. i have replaced the speed sensor on the top of the trans, the pulse generators. i have checked for codes and nothing comes up. i have also done a boost leak test, changed plugs with ngk bpr6es changed fuel filet and wires. i am all out of ideas. any ideas?
 
This happened to a dodge I had once. The idle air control valve was sticking pretty badly so it wouldnt adjust to the rpms dropping from putting it into gear. I would try another IAC first. Let us know if that fixed the problem. You could always try spraying the hell out of it with carb cleaner for a temporary fix.
