Engine won't start unless I put a little gas through air intake then it will run but the idle speed goes up and down. And if you throtle the engine it dies or if you let it keep idling it will eventualy die and other times it runs to rich runs ruf and bloes black smoke. I have replaced the fuel pump and filter and the module that goes on the butterfly shaft (throutle control modual) not sure what it is called

Hi ds holmes, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation.

Inspect and test the coolant temperature sensor, clean out the idle air control valve/EGR and PCV valves, also test the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors-also check the fuel pressure even though its new.
