I hope this is the right place for this.

I have a 92 sundance, That I've replaced the timing belt,ignition coil, and camshaft on. And as of right now, putting it in gear, drive or reverse, causes it to stall and die. We thought the timing was off, so we tried adjusting that, but nothing.

It idles fine in neutral and park. and dies almost instantly when put in gear. I'm at a complete lost as to what the issue is, and would appreciate any help or direction someone can give me.

It ran fine until we changed the timing belt the first time, No stalling, no misses. The belt was missing teeth and wouldn't spin the motor, so we replaced it. The new belt caused to much tension on the cam shaft causing it to snap near the gear, and that would be the second timing belt.

After that, it would stall while slowing down, so we thought we were a tooth or two off, removed and adjusted the timing belt for a third time which didn't make a difference, From what I can tell, the alignment was correct, but they give you little to know direction with the timing marks they use.

We then replaced the ignition coil because the car lost all fire, and also the distributor to replace the sensor inside. I had no idea about the coolant sensor, so I will try that this week.

I've also looked at the TCC, but have found no diagram on where it's located, it seemed to fit all of the symptoms though.

Thank you both for replying, Hopefully, I can get the car up and running sometime soon.

EDIT, no fault codes BTW, I'm not sure if thats because the battery has been unplugged while replacing the timing belt or not though.
