Alright So my car was parked for about a year and a half go to start it up wouldn't start no spark go through the routine coils, PT, Cas, computer. Computer and cas replaced, old ecu had leaking cap. Cars idle is bad dies everytime after first start, spits at high rpm/ bogs. Always dies in gear/reverse. I did the timing after putting in the cas it's good. the new cas is out of a 91 fwd turbo laser mine is a 90 n/t. I have no idea whats doing this. I have a new fuel pump, fuel regulator looked good just from the vaccum line test. Any advice would be appreciated thanks.
 
How did you set the timing with the car running like that? You couldnt have set it right.
It doesn't stall on first start, yes it's running rough but I still can adjust the cas to see movement i just timed it like normal with cam gear marks, grounded the computer.

I'll drain the gas it is old put seafoam in it but I guess it prob didn't help too much. Also put the old cas back in still running the same.
