sounds like the fuel pump and sending unit are going out.

Code 33 - MAP Sensor - Check the vacuum hoses from the MAP Sensor.
Check the Electrical connections at the ECM. Replace MAP Sensor.

hopes this helps.

Re: 1991 rs 3.1 wont stay running

this problem seems common and most of the time like everyone says is the wonderful fuel pump, but I had a similar problem and it ended up being my ignition module, I know you said u tested it...but so did I, had 2 places test it and they said it was fine, I just replaced it for the heck of it, and walla!
