cold stall

Mine starts and kind of runs out of gas almost and runs fine as long as i don't put it in gear right away ...or it will stall. I'm thinking one of injectors, plugs, fuel filter, fuel pump, after 21 years. Any thoughts?

I'm thinking its the fuel line pressure and you have too high of pressure which could cause the bogging down of the engine. If your up for the DIY here is the write up of how to perform the test and clean the system:
