Did you check your IAC? I would be willing to bet this is your culprit.
 






i took apart and cleaned.and when i unplug it she dies.also how would the iac have to do with once in gear sputters and stumbles??
 






Mine would sputter in gear before & dieI replaced it. But since your's died after unplugging it it's not the IAC.
