1991 Chevy Beretta 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

the engine acts like it was vapor locking. Then I checked fuel presure and it was 15 -22 running. Replaced fuel pump and now runs ok when cold. Whenit warms up if u give it gas when it gets to 3000 rpm's it dies. This is major pain in rear.

Check your pressure again, it should b e 41-47 p.S.I. If it's still ok, then try to put a vacuum gauge on it, if it's low you may have apartially plugged converter. If the fuel pressure is low ty changing your filter first. Also scan the engine for codes and then check your timing chainfor wear as you may have jumped a tooth on that.
