Engine starts and idles fine, dies in gear or when revved.... 700

Drove the car around and parked it....came back a few hours later and it didn't start the first time. Tried again and it fires up and idles fine for a few seconds. I put it in gear and before I could get my foot off the break it stalled. Further playing around with it results in it starting and idling fine, but when revved up to about 2000rpm (in park) or put into drive/reverse it dies.

I've unplugged the AMM and it didn't change anything. I can hear the main fuel pump and haven't checked the in-tank pump (replaced in the past though.) Intake hose looks horrible, but still sucks air. Any ideas of what else I can try? It's stuck at a friend's house right now and I'd just be happy if I could get it home to look at it better... :P

Thanks!
