Engine Dies After Going Into Gear

I've got a new problem that is starting to happen once a day or more. I can crank my car with no problems at all. It seems to idle like normal. Then as soon as I put into gear "Reverse or Drive" it just shuts off. If I let it run for 30 seconds and/or rev the motor, then it works fine. It also works if I give it gas real fast, however, that's usually dangerous due to my parking situation.

I've been through all of the idle-related posts and done all of the IACV, air filter and other cleanings. Most were pretty clean already. I've also run Fuel System cleaner through my car in the last month. The only thing I haven't done is change the Fuel Filter, which is built into the gas tank.

At one point a few months ago, it would start idling poorly when I was stopped at a stoplight. That hasn't happened since the fuel cleaner was run through.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Chris
