if this has a carburetor, see if the choke plate is closing a it should an open a little so it won't stall. Also alot of those 4 cyl chrysler products the gasket under the carb would go bad and leak vacuum. It is kind f a rubberized gasket and thick. if it's not something like that then it may be a trans problem.....
