Unhappy 77' Tradesman 200 (360 v8) dies when goes into gear

Anyone good w/carbs?
I might have let water into the tank w/driving w/out a lid for a few days w/light rain...
but, when my van goes into gear- KONK - it pretty much knocks out- I have to rev hard and stay in neutral as much as possible to keep it running.. I've got a Holley 2245 carb 2 barrel 360 v8... any thoughts?
It idles fine (a little slow) in neutral & park... but dies when I step on the brake, reverse & in Drive unless I rev hard...
