Measure the fuel pressure with and without the FPR vacuum hose connected:

like what steve said... a leak can casue that...

a leaky gas tank can cause a ton of driveability issues... as well as very poor mileage. 120 miles on a tank of gas blows.

i had an injector seal fail on me once... i lost almost a half tank of gas in a very short distance. im lucky it didnt catch fire.

If you don't smell a gasoline leak, then test the fuel pressure regulator by measuring the fuel pressure (see diagram) and also check the fuel injectors.
