Still having engine problems
 
The other day, it stalled waiting to back out of the driveway. It died along the way to work too. I got to work and after work, it was fine. I changed the plugs, wires, and fuel filter just saturday.(after the initial problems). Ran fine after that. Tonight after work, it wouldn't start, was cranking fine, just wouldn't quite go. I went to turn on my radio in ACC, and the room fuse blew. After, it started fine, but still died once on the way home with the same feel as it did before my tune up. It feels like my gas pedal is a brick wall when the engine dies. Any help is greatly appreciated. Something to note was that on both occasions, the air was moist, and it was chilly.

vac. leak? Bad AFM?

Nope, no leaks, and the AFM works. Just find it odd that it works great at times, and sucks at others.

That is really all it could be right?
