Wierd. My Transporter had the exact same indications as yours. Would crank and run, but immediately die when you touch the gas pedal. If you hold the key to start, you can press the gas and it runs normally until you let off of the key back to ON vice start. Anyway, I tested my relay and it's bad and I'm waiting for my new one to get here. Another thing about mine is that, if you operate the throttle locally at the carburetor instead of from the gas pedal there are no issues at all and it doesn't die. I'll post back when I get and install the new relay to say for sure rather or not it fixed my issue. I just wanted to make sure it was my issue before I ordered the relay because it's the only $42 relay I've ever seen. Most are much cheaper.
