Take a propane torch and turn it on slightly,run it over the vaccume line and any place the there would be a possible leak plenum gaskets and sensors when the gas is sucked in it will change the rpm of the motor.

Bad map sensor?

Yes the map sensor could be faulty.
You should also get a check engine light when you unplug it.

1991 ford mustang, misses under 2000rpm replaced wires distributer cap,plugs, checked timing,checked for vaccum leaks,replaced gas filter and fuel pump. when driving if the tachometer goes under 2000 rpms...

If you've recently added (or oiled) a cotton air filter like a K&N, extra oil can foul the MAF sensor causing drivability issues. Most helpful thing you could do is pull the codes though and post them on here, as it could be many things... bad O2 sensor, intake leak past the MAF, failing fuel pressure regulator (my main guess) and others. It'd help if you listed what engine your car has as well and how many miles it has, and if you have this problem under load only or even when it is in idle.
Pull the codes.

Symtoms of a bad timimg chain/belt...but ran real

Problem is not solved but I did change the fuel filter, coil pack,ICM and have proper fuel pressure to the motor. Car starts but dies right away. I cant seem to find out if the fob on the key ring has something to do with stopping the motor. This fob says Radio Key by Secure Key with a number 35077 stamped on this thing.. Still trying to find out what this is and does it effect the cars ability to run
