Hey steve, my trans am did that once. It was the mass air flow sensors and relays. There are two relays for your mass air flow sensor. A power relay and a burn off relay. I believe that they are both the same part number. They are located on the driver side right next to your firewall. They are pretty inexpensive. I would try to replace both of those. I would imagine though that you probably will have to replace the sensor itself.
