'89 vette stalled

I gave it a little extra gas and at next red light it stalled out. I tried not pressing gas pedal but it would not stay running. I tried letting it sit for about 15 minutes. I tried holding gas pedal to floor. I tried taking off and putting back on positive battery cable. It acted like it was flooded but the last time I tried to start it, it would not even connect. Good battery! Brake light was on. I did gas it a little right after starting car before my brakes make this noise, which it has always done, (going from reverse to drive) which I know nothing about. Starter is good also! Only thing I know to try is a spare passkey. It asks like it is not getting any fuel basically, Any help is greatly appreciated as I will have to have it towed by the morning if not started. Thanks!

You got duplicate threads here?

It's tough enough tryin' to solve a problem on a keyboard. Much less when you got the wrench in your hand.

ASK THE MODERATOR TO SHUT ONE OF 'EM DOWN.

My 90 would do that and more and turned out to be the distributor module.Never died on me,but took a mechanic friend 15 minutes to start when he was out checking fuel pressure.
