01 pontiac 3800 starts then stalls

I know its not third gen but i need help. my 01 pontiac grand prix 3800 non supercharged starts then stalls. if you hold the gas down you can keep it running and after about a minute or two it runs and idles just fine.
it only does this when you restart the car when its warm.

so far i have replaced these items
-mas sensor
-map sensor
-fuel pump and filter
-egr gasket and cleaned up the egr
-vaccum lines

ive scanned the car for codes but i got nothing, and im sick of dumping money and parts into it without fixing it

anything will help

Sorry, this is for 3rd gens only. You'll have to find a Grand Prix forum somewhere.
