I have an update: the car finally stays running without having to unplug the AMM. After replacing the AMM and the O2 sensor with no luck, and checking the IAC motor and TPS, I swapped out the ECU as a last resort. When I pulled the old one, it had a little rattle inside, so I guess something must have broken inside. I installed one from my 88 parts car, hooked the battery back up, and it runs! I still need to adjust the TPS to get idle back down to where it should be. I hope this helps someone else, too.
