Lumina stalls

Lumina stalls
I know this is a Corvette forum. But, I have had a problem that has kept my Lumina off the road for two months. I am hoping someone has an idea that can help.
Hello, I own a 1998 Lumina. Car runs great, when it runs. Lately it has a stalling problem. The car will drive fine and then stall. There are NO CODES. It may restart and idle but it will not move. If I put it in gear it stalls immediately and will not restart.
My mechanic has changed the MAF, Alternator, Battery, Fuel pump and filter.
Does anybody have any clue what this is. If it sits it will start and idle without any problem. Last time it stalled it restarted and I had it idle for twenty minutes while waiting for a tow truck. When I put it in drive shut off and would not restart.

It has the 3.1. Frankly I do not know what is missing. I frankly think that it is the transmission. but, no codes from the trans. It just will not fire up. The engine is like it has been shut off. It really sucks. Thank you all

Purely a guess crank sensor or chaffed jumper harness. It can fail with no codes. It's not easy to get to back side of block above pan rail. You need diagnose when it won't start. Ground wires are always a possibility. Transmission is electronic it should default to second.
