92' Bird not working right....Help!!

My 92' Bird is cutting out at startup. In order to get her running, u must push the gas down. While she is driving and at idle she will randomly give herself shots of gas. Its like the car is flooding herself. Sometimes y u drive, the car will speed up on her own. Which may be caused by a sudden idle increase, I think it may be the map sensor, anymore suggestions?

Checked for a vacum leak already and found none. Any other possibilities?
