I need help ASAP! Basically if I can get this car running, I get it for free. It's my mother-in-law's and her mother was the original owner. It's got 99k miles on it and has been babied.

On to the issue. I thought the Alternator was the only issue. After replacing that and getting it running, idles fine (700-1000 RPM is fine right?) but when I went to drive off it died. I started again and revved slowly to see where the cut off is. It dies after hitting 2000 RPM. I checked the MAF, that is in order. I've yet to replace spark plugs or wires, but i have them on hand. Should I replace those and then check back cause I wasn't sure if that would be the issue...

Hopefully someone can help me troubleshoot this issue and more importantly get me a free pignose.
