An automatic car can stall when put into gear for countless reasons. It could be a result of a faulty coolant sensor, bad alternator, empty fuel tank, bad fuel pump, leaking vacuum when the filter is blocked, etc.

If the vehicle idles for several minutes without a problem, and only dies when put into gear, it's probably not a fuel pump or fuel tank issue.
