Check ur fuel pump but testing the fuel rails pressure! That is a common problem we have.

ive got a similar issue and im gettin alot of advice that it may be my cat converter ive also heard injectors. but could be your iac too or any of the other stuff listed but im gonna pull my pump and inspect it and replace injectors and cut pipe infront of cat to see if any of that fixes it and if not then im just gonna baby it till i deploy then drop a 350 or 305 in it

I would check your catalytic converter first (claygrassmann beat me to it, hehe), if it gets clogged, it creates tons and tons of back pressure, and the motor will hesitate really bad at anything past idle and will eventually just not run at all after it gets warm...
