'89 740gle wagon. recent manifold gasket replacement and more recent exhaust replacement.

For the last coupla weeks she has been getting more difficult to start. Turns over fine, but won't catch and get going. Was taking two tries to start, but a few times in the past few days has been failing to start at all. Now she's sitting in a parking lot.

Turns over strong, but won't start
Problem persists whether car is cold or warm, same for weather.
Once running, runs fine...no hesitation, stalls, etc.
Gas is getting to the rail above the injectors.
Sparks at plugs, etc.

More info available, as needed.
Any ideas? Help would be most appreciated.
