Yeah I tried the mass air flow sensor a while ago the car still does the exact same thing as before it will run for abought 15 - 20 minutes then sputter down and turn off. Usually it will starts back up but will die again almost instantly. If I hold the gas pedal down it will usually stay running but once I let off it dies it sometimes it sputter when im also holding the gas.
So far I have done spark pluggs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, coil, coolent temp sensor, mass air flow sensor, throttle possitioning sensor, and the fuel pump.

Verify the actual fuel pressure with a gauge with and without vacuum to the pressure regulator. Test the fuel pump relay both coil and switch side resistances. All these checks out-try substituting the ignitor and check all connections to the coil.

Did you replace the distributor?
