Default My POS keeps dying when put into gear, HELP!!!

So its a 94 sc300 automatic transmission. Car starts up without a problem and idles strong. Problem is once I shift it into gear the car stutters and dies. The other problem is I cant really diagnose this myself because the car is 800 miles away. It has to be getting air fuel and spark and have compression to start up and run so healthy. So if anyone has any ideas of what it could possibly be, or dealt with this before please post up.

Here is a list of known good parts(none of which have more than 14 days total use on them)
ecu rebuilt
all fuses replaced
new headgasket/machined head(so i know compression is good, but it was tested)
plugs, wire, distributor, battery, alternator and everything else ignition related I replaced when the car wasnt getting spark.
Injectors pulled and tested, they work fine.
And many other odds and ends that I wouldnt think relate to the problem
