1983 refused to start after intake manifold removed & replaced. 200

Greetings guys and gals,
Decided to replace my oil separator box.
Removed the intake manifold including all its wirings and the three sensors underneath were all removed and cleaned up.
Upon completion of the project the car started right up after fuel reached the injectors. Her idle ran a little high. I turned her off.
A few minutes later upon 2nd start she refused to start again.
Temperature was in the 90's so I came inside.
6 hours later I went out and she started on first try, but then she immediately died. Refused to start again.
 
Could the Ignition and fuel injection Temperature sensor/wiring be causing this?
She seems to be having symptoms similar to a knock sensor issue on later models. I don't believe she has a knock sensor (1983).

Any and all advice is appreciated.
