dies after running a short while

#1

I have a 1991 SL with 1.9 SOHC and TBI
This unit will start some times run a while then slowly die out while
idling, or quickly if given some throttle.
we've replace fuel pump, injector, throttle body, O2 sensor, temp sensors,
fuel.
If while its dying you dribble some fuel into the TBI it rsponds with more
rpms.
I'm looking at replacing the PCM but at 500 bucks I want to know I'm not
wasting money again.

any thoughts??

You either didnt touch the fuel filter or forgot to mention it. If you
havent done that then thats likely the cause. If you have let us know.
