Fuel related issues? 200 1991

Hey guys, let me preface this with saying that I'm new here. I've been searching posts related to my issues for a while now, but after swapping out both fuel pumps, the relay, checked the fuel pressure regulator and no fuel was in the line and cleaning the contacts on the fuses I'm still having the same issue.

Hot or cold starting is a headache in itself. Sometimes my 91 245 will start right up without hesitation, and sometimes it takes a few cranks to start it, which leads into another issue. As I try to get it going down the road sometimes it'll go without problems, but most times it'll rev for a second then it'll kill itself, almost as if it gets starved of fuel. On occasion when I get it to a point where it will drive down the road, it will hiccup, especially when I put my foot down and it changes gears. It also dies when I'm at a stoplight and give it gas, unless I feather the gas peddle and keep my foot on the brake.

I have checked for spark and it has nice blue spark from the plugs, I have yet to check compression, but I'm sure that fine too, because when it does run, it purs, and it has a good solid idle.

What do you guys think?
