I think its a throttle position sensor, however let me explain.

when i first start the car and drive it is fine if i keep the rpms up, then if i let the rpms down or even somtimes without letting the rpms down the car loses all power, and dies slowly,,,,,
then if i start it back up it will repeat......
i have taken the belt off, and it feels like im getting alot of resistance from the power stearing pump, and the smog pump is not very smooth eather,,,, what do you guys think,,,,,
thanks

i doubt its the smog or power steering pump, i've had those seize solid on me and the motor would run, just the belt was destroyed

i took the belt off the motor and was able to drive if for a short while with no trouble, it seems to be one of the accesories, i can figure out what it would be though, because the pullies all spin on the accesories
