change fuel filter and...

I've changed the fuel filter, adjusted TPS, changed plugs and plug wires and its still giving me a bunch of sh*t.

Whenever I leave car in a parking lot or pretty much just let it sit for about 10 minutes it doesn't want to start again. It acts as if it's flooded because it doesnt want to fire. Sometimes when I give it half throttle and feather it, I can hear/feel the rotors moving and it will slowly/roughly come to life. I don't notice any smoke.

So pretty much right now I'm afraid take it to the gas station because it will probably die.

Any ideas? Plugged fuel injectors? Anything to do with the air flow sensor becuase this started to happed about a week after I put a cone filter on it.

BTW: 91 n/a
