Default burnt up erg valve question???

A few days ago my 92 dakota 318 started to run like crap. It would take 2-3 miles to get up to speed.then it would die a stop signs and once ya got it started I had to pump it ( very low rpms) to keep it running. I replaced the erg when I found a hole burnt through it. it ran perfect for about a mile and acted up again. The new erg had a hole burnt through it after only a mile!!! any ideas where to start next? is it really needed? its my main ride to work so I need to get it up and running asap. thanks

It sounds like you have a major problem like a backfire since your burning it up that quick. Check all wires and hoses
