Do you smell a lot of fuel? That sounds like my car when one of my 800cc secondaries stuck open. It drove a little and then died, all the while popping and running rough. If you can't think of anything else you could get all 4 injectors cleaned.

I had a similar prolbem when one of my ground wires was not connected properly. Its kinda hard to determine what would cause that kinda prolbem.
