1989 dodge dakota, 2.5L, 150k+, manual
Engine starts and runs smoothly for several minutes then revs for several seconds and dies. If I try to restart it will backfire and I have to pump accelerator
to keep engine running.
Replaced oxygen, idle throttle sensors with no change. Could this be computer? How can I know for sure? Thank you for any help.

Try check the coolant temperature sensor return signal to the computer. The CTS comes in play during initial start up. Its like your choke on a Carb. Engine. Further it could be the O2 sensor/s
