I have a 1993 dodge grand caravan It starts up fine and runs smoothly however when I apply the brake and put it into gear it stalls. However if I put it into gear rev the engine it takes off and while going down the road it shifts smoothly with no lag or slipping.. what could cause it to stall like this?

Many things could cause this. A sensor, vacuum leak, fuel pressure... can cause an engine to die at low RPM's. Has the check engine light come on? HAve you checked fuel pump pressure?

Let me know.

I dont think its fuel pressure it seems to be fine, but a vacume leak may be the cause
