Do you think it acts more like an electrical issue?

HeyITZthatFC

So did you fix the problem or is it still dying on you?

First, make sure the electrical plug into the AFM is connected and properly seated. If that's not your problem, the it sounds like you have a monster vacuum leak. Check the obvious places like the individual vacuum lines. They get brittle and can crack or just work loose over time and heat. Also the gaskets and seals between the throttle body and the UIM and the UIM to the LIM. Mine did what yours is doing and it turned out to be a worn out LIM gasket that was sucking in unmetered air.
