hey 6gc i know this is a 5th gen lol but i recently picked it up with an idling problem...it seems to idle then die when i accelerate it gets loud and stays under 2k rpm but when i accelerate slowly it will climb to about 2.5k rpm...i think its running rich because it smells like gas and i see a little smoke from the engine...the previous owner says its an MAP sensor but not sure thanks for all the help!!

i think as soon as the ecu throws the code it goes into safe mode then cuts the fuel then dies..I would check your codes by jumping the diag box and go from there.
