Oldsmobile Delta 88 Choke Problem


1988 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Problem with 139000 miles

Rough idle, stalls, if accelarator is held down slightly engine wont stall, but still rough idle. The car runs smooth most of the time,but sometimes it runs rough after stopping at a light it starts to choke off and then it sounds as if it's skipping I have to really press the gas to keep it from choking off /cutting off. I have cleaned the throttle Body,changed plugs and wire, replaced 02 sensor, Idle control sensor and camshaft sensor. But still it acts as if it will stall out or choke off. What do I do?
