sounds like It could be your fuel pump or fuel filter, I wouldn't chance driving it anywhere (if that's even possible) your going to need to get it towed.
If it's very repetetive, its probably not temperature related. It wouldn't do it that many times if it was the temperature. It could be the fuel pump. Get it towed to a mechanic to check it out.
Its definitely timing related if its dying after touching gas.
Get a compression test firstly, see if all cylinders are firing correctly.
Failing this, and considering its running rich, it could be getting flooded with fuel.
Give it a huge rev when you first turn the car on, does black smoke come out?
Injectors are pretty easy to replace yourself.
If it is indeed the problem, you can either get them sonically cleaned and tested, or completely replace them (expensive).
If you know how to take them out yourself you will save a heap of cash by doing that and simply taking them to an injector specialist for testing and cleaning.
