Similar thing happened to me a week ago when I was cleaning the engine
bay. I had unplugged the connector going to the air cleaner unit (air
flow meter), and the van would start up without a problem, and even
allow me to start to drive. But without fail, 20 seconds later it
would die when I gave it gas.


This is different from when I have left the oxygen sensor unplugged,
which allowed me to get a couple miles down the road before it
sputtered out.
