Default Help Car acting really weird

hey guys i normally only post on 3.8mustang but recently i traded in my 02 sixer for a 96 GT anyway i have had some problems with my gt lately.
its a 96 gt manual.

symptoms:
- idle is very crazy goes up and down and will eventually stall
- anything under 2000 rpms will bog alot and backfire when im off the throttle
- has not thrown any codes, except lately when the idle goes nuts the engine light will flash but wont stay on.
- i also noticed recently that it was kicking out some black smoke when it stalled ( i think just from me flodding it to get it started again)
- it has also stalled while driving

what ive done:
- new MAF
- cleaned the IAC
- changed the fuel filter
- seafoam
- changed the vac lines coming from the EGR and TB


ive noticed that some people have had this problem and it was the TPS but im really clueless to what this could be any help would be appreciated .. since this is my DD im kinda screwed right now
