89 iroc ront stay started...

I have a 89 iroc wit the L98 350TPI engine and auto trans,got the car about 5months ago and been driving wit no prob what so ever until last night..I have replaced the spark plugs,wires.fuel pump,fuel press rega about a month ago.took the car out of town like always but when I park the car and tryed to start it again about 10 mins later it wouldn't stay started unless I held the gas pedal down alil to bring the rmps up so it wouldn't die,if I didn't it would die like 2sec after cranking..and when I'm holding the gas down alil the engine has a real bad miss to it or shakin feel to it...any ideas what it could be...I was thinking of the maf..I don't have any tools to check anything either sorry...
