Engine started oddly, as it took 5 or 6 seconds of cranking before it finally fired up (normally takes 1 or 2 sec.) Last driven a week ago. Drove normally for about 15 minutes, then stalled while driving. Started, but wouldn't idle or stay alive without slight throttle. Wouldn't rev much or stay running under any load. Engine got rougher as I continues to try to start it and keep it running. I noticed some black smoke coming out the exhaust while I was fiddling with the throttle trying to keep it alive. Flat bedded it back home.
I believe the LH and EZ modules are original (135K miles), as are the coils and MAF, though I added a new connector/wiring to the MAF a few years ago. My first thought is it's ignition related?? Any advice on what I should start troubleshooting would be appreciated. Thanks.
