Sounds like a possible O2 or TPS problem.

Could be the alternator or a possible short in the wiring.

Your problem sounds similar to mine, my dizzy took a **** the next morning on the way to work. I hope it doesn't happen to you. Pop open the cap and check for red dust. If it's there, replace that thing right away.
