Fuel Issue or something

Well I'm back after fighting with my car more. I'm running out of things to swap out though I think the piece that is bad is getting worse because it doesn't take long before the car start running very bad. So here is the issue.
86 900S Manual Tranny
Start car and it USUALLY runs fine for a few minutes and then starts running very rough and almost seems like it's missing and gradually gets to the point that trying to give it gas causes it to bog and want to die. From then it's all bad and will not move more then a couple miles an hour and eventually it WILL die though it usually starts back up, but will not do much more than run very rough and continue to die. Pressing the gas very rapidly can sometimes make the it rev, but any slow or fast pushing causes it to stall out totally. I thought it was fuel pump dying, BUT if I unhook the Coolant Temp Sensor (NTC) and it sorta runs better like it's getting more fuel, but doesn't run well enough as you might imagine but at least pushing the gas doesn't cause it to stall out. I have replaced the AIC, the NTC, AMM, Oxygen sensor, and the little box in the drivers fender well (can't remember name..something like KGA or something) At one point it could be driven short distances and it keeps getting worse. The check engine light will sometimes come on.
Help me! I just know it's something "easy" and I'm just not looking in the right place!
