Starts when cold, runs, then dies. Why?

Thanks to those who responded to my earlier post on 1/30. Here's what's transpired since. I let the car sit for a day, then tried to start it again. It fired right up and ran for a few moments. Then, the idle dropped and it began missing, not responding to throttle. Black condensation came out of the tailpipe. It finally stalled. It restarted, but died within seconds.
It seems to be running rich, to my thinking. I've tried unplugging the AMM, but it makes no difference. But over the past few months, it has been exhibiting symptoms of a bad AMM. If the AMM had failed, would it cause the above mentioned problems? I have fuel and spark...checked those things already. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
