Engine acting weird! 700 1989

Recently I have been experiencing some weird engine problems. I have an 89' B230ft with 180,000 miles on it. Lately it has been dying for no reason. It used to idle all over the place and die when I started it up. Yesterday I replaced the amm with one my dad had from the same model and that made it idle a lot better. Now when I drive it at low speeds it just dies. No increase in rpms! The throttle pedal sometimes seems like it isnt give throttle but that cant be it. I dont think it is a vaccum line. Any help would be great!

One more question, recently my tach. hasnt been working when i accelorate from a stop, causing the anti-lock light to come on on the dash. What can i do to fix this?

Thanks
Leland
