You need to check the electronic engine control system for fault codes and do the appropriate diagnostics for the codes received, learn how to do that here. You may also have mechanical engine problems like a camshaft timing Bel that has failed, see if the cams turn with the engine crankshaft pulley. If the cam belt has failed you have big problems because this is an interference engine and the engine valves will be bent, that means the engine heads must at very least come off for repair. At that point it is better to junk the car.
SOURCE: the check engine light comes on and then the engine dies
If you check under the hood and see if the fuel pump relay is clicking on and off. This may be your problem.
SOURCE: the car dont accelerate properly and sometimes the
clean the distributor and see if your getting fuel pressure to all the cylinders and check your air intake. also i see you didnt mention the rotor inside the cap??? thats a must with a full tune up

Fuel pump
Testimonial: "It's the fuel pump indeed. Also the gas tank found to be very dirty. The fuel pump was replaced, fuel system cleaned, now the car runs perfectly."
