Hi, new to the forum. I assume you don't have a fuel pressure gauge in your car. It would be a good idea to add one, even temporarily, to help diagnose. If pressure is falling off when the problem happens then obviously you would look at fuel system, pump problem, etc.

I had an '88 LX that would run terrible until I unplugged and reconnected the MAP sensor while idling, then it ran 100%. I replaced the ECU and it was fine. It seems like you could have a similar type problem. Maybe try a different ECU.
