I would recommend:
1. send the injectors to Cruzin Performance. They will clean and calibrate
them for about $12 apiece and they will be like new. They also furnish new
seals with the service, which is worth at least $1 each.
2. Either clean or see if you can find another throttle switch.

Also, general guidance: Make sure that ALL the electrical connections are clean
and tight. Of special concern are the little hairpin things in the plug that
plugs into the computer.
Also make sure that you have no vacuum leaks on any of the hoses or other
connections. A worn out brake booster can also be a source of vacuum leax.

I would say that if it runs at least FAIRLY well, you are way ahead of the game.

Perseverance will win where genius and brilliance will not.
