Just got this car has been sitting, installed new fuel pump and plugs, cap, rotor, and fresh fuel. Car will start and idle nice for about 3 sec and start to spudder and then dies, will restart and do the same thing. Checked timing and adjusted should be really close but no change..-- Also has no throttle response if you go to give some throttle wants to bog and die out..

Need some help please - thanks to all who do

Agent jonny924, your mission

if you choose to accept it, (and you should) is to replace all rubber vacuum lines in the engine compartment.

It will listen to the Hound of Plaid, or it will suffer. Yesssss. . .

Also do a search here for AAV, cold start valve and fuel pressure test.

Even before that, I'd pull injectors and make sure they're spraying... I'm betting the fuel distributor may be gunked up...
