89 2.9 4x4 auto has had new distib, computer, coil, and tps. Ran great for about 3kmiles suddenly would die. Obd1 indicated faulty tps (which had been replaced) so replaced again. Ran fine for about 1 tank of gas then would suddenly die. If I modulate the throttle quickly and keep the revs up I can make it a mile or so to a safe spot but with significant sputtering and some backfires. Sometimes after starting it runs perfect for a mile or two other times erratic from the start.CEL sometimes on then off. Any ideas would be helpful, thank you, your advice from past posts has always been helpful. I forgot to add when the engine stops and the key is on (Koeo) the relays are all clicking like crazy.
