It could be a combination of 2 things. A faulty MAP sensor itself or a bad TPS (throttle position sensor). It's not uncommon for a bad TPS to idle when the motor is cold but once warm, not idle fast enough to keep the vehicle running.
Just to give you a little more info... I have an emissions light on and it smells like it is running real rich
An emissions light brings the possibility of bad O2 sensors into the picture. Unfortunately, without a diagnostic test to help narrow it down, it's trial and error. It's also likely that you've got a combination of issues causing your problem. I'd certainly look into the O2 sensor (runs about $30) to clear up your emissions problem. It may cure the problem or at the very least, improve the engines performance.
Thank you sir
