ABS would not cause this. I would suspect a faulty crank sensor. Check engine light on? Does it die immediately or after a few seconds?

Can you give it gas to keep it alive?

I am thinking it has something to do with or feeds the timing. Crank sensor(s), ignition control module, coils... That is what I think. Others should chime in here soon.

Others have had erratic gauges when alternator or battery was faulty or on it's last leg.

The VSS (vehicle speed sensor) should feed acouple things, butyou do not need it to run.
