Stalling

So i've been having some trouble with my car It's a 1994 camaro Z28. it keeps stalling. some times it will run with the IAT pluged in and sometimes not.
tuseday night it stalled and took 3 hours to get it running and then it stalled again within 10mins. To get the car to start we had to keep spraying starter fluid in threw the air intake. It almost seemed like the engine wasn't getting any gas. yesterday we replaced the MAF, MAP, IAT, fuel filter, and throttle position sensor. The car would start but then stall in 5 seconds. so we sprayed break cleaner on the opti spark along with more starting fluid into the intake and the car started. It kept running for 5 mins. so we shut it off and went and go some sea foam. Put that in the tank and started the car. it ran for 10mins then i got in it and drove it up and down the drive way. once i pushed it too hard it stalled and took more starting fluid to get it going. If the car is just sitting there it runs. If you baby the car it runs. If you hit the gas too hard it stalls.

Re: Stalling

Best way to start the diagnosis would be to scan if for codes and check the fuel pressure. A lot cheaper than randomly replacing parts.

The IAT has very little to do with the way the car runs, unless your MAF sensor has died and the PCM has defaulted to speed-density.
