Stumped 700 1987

K here's the scoop

I picked up a 87 765ti from a fellow bricker recently with a blowen head gasket,
I have since replaced

Head, plus gasket
IAC
That little device on the drivers side fendor wall
Distributer, plus cap and wire's
New exhust gasket's
new intake gasket
I have good spark on all 4 wire's
I can feel that all 4 injectors and injecting, checked voltage's okay.
Drove is almost 300 mile's no mixture of water and oil since head replacement.
No Smoke from tail pipe.

Issue
Car start's up just fine but immediatly idle's to crap and die's out, once you get it about 2800-3000 rpm's it start to run okat, feel's like it is missing on a cyl during idle, car dies within 3 seconds when pull AMM connection. Set timeing 3 time's no help. Appear's to be slightly buring rich. Engine die's within a few seconds when pulling any of the plug wire's.

What am i missing here? I plan on a compression test tomorrow but i think that's going to come out okay. Could the ECT alone cause these problem's?
