scan for codes and check fuel pressure first with a gauge. auto parts rents it. yes you don't have amap sensor it may be called the dpfe sensor instead or it's with some thing else.

Check fuel pressure as he stated. Could be fuel filter or pump issue. Also check fuel pressure regulator. Pull off the vacuum hose going to the regulator and see if you see raw fuel coming out of it. If there is then replace it. Could also be a clogged converter.
