Question dead idle... help

Well I just put in good clean injectors (rebuilt by RC engineering) I did this because my car (1987 turbo II) flooded everytime I turned it off. So I took everything apart put in the good injectors ( I had a hell of a time with the vacuum lines but eventually put them on correctly, thanks to Hailers)

I finished putting everything back together and started it. it smoked a little (proly cause I haven't started it in a 2 weeks). I let it warm up and after it was warmed up it was idling rough. The RPMS's surged from 1000 to 300.

I then Adjusted the BAC and it Idled normaly. I took it out for a spin and it started to idle roughly again.

The car ran great under 3000 rpm but when taking it to higer rpms it started to sputter like it didn't want to go faster (I'm would it has somthing to do with the secondary injectors but I just put in those rebuilt injectors). Afew blocks more of driving, I came to a stop sign and the car idled down and shut off. I couldn't get it started again (It seemed like the car had flooded).

After a few hours I tried to start it again and it started but wouldn't stay on unless I had my foot on the gas.

Sorry for the long post, I just wanted cover everything so troubleshooting wouldn't be soo hard.

Any thoughts? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Asghar

the secondaries dont come online until 3800 rpms AND there has to be a load on the engine for them to come on. were your primaries rebuilt as well?
