The car stalls at full throttle (after I release the pedal) and then I have to turn the car all the way off to get it to restart. Also after it sits over nite it cold starts rough and blows black smoke and takes a few tries before it runs normal. I replaced the maf, tps, bad o2, and cleaned the IAC. Still ran rich at cold start and stalled at full throttle. Then replaced iac. Same result. Not sure where to go from here. No engine codes at this point your input is greatly appreciated

The black smoke tells me it's getting too much gas and not enough air. Make sure the simple things like the air filter, air intake. Are not plugged. If everything is good, I would check the temp sensor. It may be telling the computer to run the fuel mixture too rich.
