1988 Toyota SR5 4 cylinder 4 wheel drive truck with 220k miles will start and run in idle mode but when the excelerator is pressed the engine dies. It first started when the truck was running. Pushing all the spark plug wires and the distributor to coil wire tempoarily fixed problem. The same problem occured once again the next day after running for thirty minutes. Plug and distributor wires, distributor cap and rotor were replaced but didn't fix the problem. Any suggestions how to proceed will be greatly appreciated!

A quick check would be to crack the exhaust pipe loose at the manifold and see if you can get it to rev.........
