I was wrong and ignorant to ignore the suggestions of an ignition problem! Apologies to those who suggested it. Turned out I had a bad leading coil. I spent a lot of time trouble shooting my wiring after I had sourced some "new" primary injectors and they failed to remedy the issue. I never would have thought a bad coil could make the engine run so lean. It wasn't even firing!

Anyway I finally got a "new" leading in this morning and she started right up. The engine seemed smoother and more responsive too compared to when it was even running!

So... what's going to break next
Neighbor's antenna?
