hey Derek. try unplugging your maf sensor. the car should die out. I had a similar issue car would fire up and idle perfectly then you give it gas and mine would stutter and almost die and run like ass under throttle (no power and the car would get super fucking loud). ended up being my ecu. this really sounds like a fueling issue, and both the ecu and maf sensor affect or controlfueling

when the car is idling and i pull the maf sensor it tries to die so i know that it works and it's not the maf. i have a feeling that the butterfly valve in the intake is staying closed and when i give it gas it doesn't open so it dies because it's running too rich. not sure. could it be timing?

check the throttle body by popping the hood and physically turning it by hand

Have you checked for intake leaks? All couplers, gaskets, etc. Brake ckean everywhere air could get in. If it has a wideband, what do the afrs look like at idle and when you give it throttle.

my bad I thought you were talking about the Throttle body butterfly valve. yeah I could see the intake runner butterfly valves causing this sort of issue if they are stuck mostly closed

The only way I no to get the timing right is with the timing gun. You can try to mess with the distributer when the car is on

Rotate the engine to tdc, make sure the distributor rotor points to plug 1. Also might want to check the marks on the timing chain.

Then pull the valve and timing covers and check the timing marks.
