Joe, I worked on one a few years back that would stall when put in gear, it just didn't have it...it did work in reverse, although not great. The culprit, in the end, was stuck valves. Thumb test compression was good, however when we put a gauge on it we knew. Cleaned up the valves and reseated them and all was good. You will have the head off anyway to change the gaskets so it's a good opportunity to check all of that.
