Go to Autozone and rent/borrow (it's free after they give your deposit back) a fuel pressure gauge and check the pressure and post back what it is.
Low fuel pressure fits the symptoms in your other posts too.
If you haven't changed the fuel filter, it back by the left rear tire.
Even if you convert it to carb you're still going to have to fix this.

Coolant Temp Sensor
IAC are the first 2 things that come to mind.
