Well I've messed with it some over the past few days with the advice given here and finally it started. I'm not sure exactly what I did to do this, but now it's working... I tried looking for the mixture adjustment I've been asking about, and in the process of doing that I removed the cobra like air thing that goes to the turbo, mess with the parts in it some. I also too out a mixture adjustment like screw/needle on the inside (pointing towards the drivers side of the car) of the fuel distributer, but really it should be back where it was to start. The last thing I did today was pop off the fuel line on the intake manifold (the one right in the middle, comes from the fuel distributer) and with it off (and a little cup under it) cranked the engine some; when I did that fuel came out. I put it back on and tightened it up (not too tight) and tried starting it. At first it didn't work, but then I tried starting it again (since it was sounding happier towards starting then it has been) and it started up and seemed fine.
Could there have been some sort of 'vapor' block there? The only other time I messed with that line was when I did the wire harness a month or two ago.
Now, I don't reacall losing any parts, but it could have happened so I'll ask- is there supposed to be a washer on that banjo hook up (that's the right name for that style hook-up, right?). I don't seem to have a washer there and I seem to remember seeing in some manual that there was one there.
Anyway, at least it started and ran. Still doing the dropping idle and catching before it dies when I let off the gas (in neutral). Oh well- 'nother project, maybe it's that cold start injector. I maybe have to try that rehab shown in that link (from Alex).
Thanks for all the help everyone.
