stops after reving from idol and/or running for 5-10mins

im having this problem where my car will idol fine and start up fine from cold but when i give it a few pumps on the gas after its run for a minute or so it dies and then wont start again unless i pull the inj fuse or leave it for a while. when it dyes i can hear the AFM close when it actually shuts off so i dont think its a small vacuum leak thats causing a fuel cut.I also have fuel as i have a fuel pressure gauge and this does not drop or anything so its not a fuel cut probelm ( i think )

it was ( i dont know if this is still happening as i havnt let it run for long enough as ive been trying to sort the above problem ) also dying after running for 5 to ten mins if just left to idol untouched.

can you guy help me with these problem

sounds like bad afm or tps have you tried to just ease on the gas and see when it cuts or dies

thanks for the relpy, i was wondering if i was going to get one.
basically if i start it up ( from cold ) and let it run for a little bit just to get the oil every where it should be and give it a stab on the gas, only to about 3-4000 rpm and then take my foot off completly it wil rev back down then die. if i try start it again its flooded and wont start. i can sit there and give it some revs till the cows come home but as soon as i rev it it wont idol again. maybe it is the tps. i damaged the wires a bit ( not broken or anything ) and soem of the plastic came off. maybe there a break in wire before the plug or maybe there arcing out or grounding or somthiing

i would fix that and then proceed to afm and when it dies and you think its flooded try to start it right after with the gas pushed to the floor and just cranking a few seconds and see if it will kick over. after driving mine for a few minutes and turning it off i have to floor it to start it again dont know why yet but try that and post again
