I'm guessing the TPS has gone bad. This is strictly a guess though...

I think Eric had this problem on his red T-Bird he just got rid of. I think he said it was the torque convertor.

got it moving now by throwin it into neutral n not letting it stall but i noticed while i was going down the street there was a little lag when i was pushin down on the pedal if that helps any? maybe its the injectors or the fuel pump or filter???
