Re: It dies when put in gear. Ran just fine , but now it...
If you leave it in park and pump the gas peddle a few times does it choke itself into a stall? if so then check and replace the air filter, its probably long overdue to be replaced

didnt specify the year but some of the older 90s the torque converter clutch solenoid [ tcc ] failing or connector problem you can disconnect it and drive i believe the 95 and down can be replaced by unscrewing it from case --others are inside unit
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.
it'll either be your ignition system (spark plugs, distributor cap, etc) or more likely your fuel system (most likely your fuel pump or your fuel filter)
