Starts idles fine but when step on gas spits and sputters then dies

When I first start it up the engine races then slows for a miniute or two then it smooths out but when I step on the gas it either stalls or misses then sometimes it backfires and quits. could it be the tps,map,or the iac.if not what else could it be.
