Check for huge vacuum leaks.

Check the connector at the AFM. It may have wiggled loose or become damged.

If that doesn't do it, jumper the yellow test connector at the passenger shock tower which will cause the fuel pump to run continuously and see if the car runs. If so, then the AFM is bad.

See the FAQ for common acronyms and links to the Factory Service Manual.

AFM = Air Flow Meter.
