Angry 86 cutlass dies when placed in drive

1986 cutlass supreme 307 quadrajet auto. i recently replaced the air pump and three check valves. noticed a water leak that came from the intake manifold gasket. replaced the gasket and started the motor but when i place it in drive or reverce the motor dies within 5 seconds. i replaced the cooling sensor and checked the voltage from the yellow and the black wire and i got 5 vdc with the key on. the vacuum hoses seem to be in the right places but then again im not sure. please help. thanks, john

i couldn't find any vacuum leaks. i will spray all lines with wd-40 to see if engine revs up. at the moment the rpm's seem to be very high. i will check it out with a tach. tomorrow. thanks. john
