1990 CRX DX, MPFI, I/H/E

I had this happen to me about 3 weeks ago, thought it was the main relay, replaced that. It drove fine since then, but today the same thing happened to me, pretty much in the same spot while driving. I was sitting at a redlight, it turned green, pushed on the gas, and it dropped from 750 to 0 RPMs. It didn't rev at all, as soon as I touched the gas ~~> dead! (the car was not even warmed up yet, been running for about 3-5 minutes)

Check electrical connections, grounds, and all that good stuff, everything seems to be in order. Fuel filter was changed less than a year ago. Any suggestions? I just had a new ignitor put in ~1.5 years ago. I'm not receiving any codes. It started back up about 15 minutes later as well. Last time it happened, it was above 90 outside, today about the same. Anything to do with the heat?

Update: Checked ignitor, the resistance between terminals A+B are are 1.1 ohms, spec is ~.7. However, it still feels a bit warm (hasn't run in 2 hours). I'm going to let it cool for a while longer and recheck. Does this sound like the culprit of my intermittent problem?

Update #2: Pulled my plugs, all black! I just had them out 2 weeks ago, perfectly tan. Now they're black. Fuel problem, eh? I'm going to acquire a fuel pressure gauge to test my FPR, I doubt it's my injectors, how would all 4 go out at the same time??? Any other ideas?

It's a long shot, but have you checked the temp sensor (TW)? If it was getting flakey, it might cause the car to run rich, thus the stalling and black plugs. Only other thought is... do the 'oil' and 'batt' lights come on when it dies? If not, suspect the ignition switch. That wouldn't cause your black plugs, though.
