AFM?
Ignition module?


No throttle response to me sounds like AFM (including a busted wire to
ECU).  Nice thing about the DigiTool is that it measures at the ECU, so it
catches all the broken wire/intermittent-contact problems.


Get a mechanic's starter switch and leave it hooked up so you can crank
from the engine room.  When it's not working -- measure what you can,
wiggle wires and so forth.  Unplug the ECU and plug it back in (ignition
off...).
