Assuming that the plugs look ok (change them if you're not sure) and the cap + rotor are good, then try just disconnecting the AMM (air mass meter) on the left front inner fender.
If it runs then (at least idles) then it's probably going bad. Lots of trouble with those on 83-84 cars. Try to find a used one- maybe $40-50 in a junkyard. Less if they don't know how bad you need it!
Also, just make sure you don't have any big vacuum leaks anywhere- intake manifold, vacuum hoses, big air hose from AMM, etc.

Did you actually test the fuel pressure or just verify presence of fuel?
