The problem seems to be getting worse!

Tonight, when I first left the house, I got about a mile before it started sputtering, I pulled off the road and it stalled.

Later on, well after it being warmed up (about 20 miles after it driving great), I was accellerating in 4th gear at around 70mph when it just choked. I put the throttle to the floor and it was completely unresponsive. From there, I drifted to a stoplight and when it turned green, I went no-where. I pressed the throttle and heard sputtering and backfiring, barely moving at all, it did this and all of the sudden...BAM, it woke up and ran like a bat outta hell again.

I'm about ready to just start throwing parts at it (starting with MAF and O2's). I've been through and heard many horror stories of vehicles being at the dealer for weeks at a time and thousands of labor dollars only to be told "we can't duplicate the problem" or "this should fix it".

Any other suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated. Fuel pump? vaccum issues? AOS?
