Engine wont stay running.

I have a 88 RX7 Turbo 2 that does not want to stay running on its own gas. I put gas in the tube that goes to the turbo directly and the car stays on for a while then dies out. What should i do the main fuel line has pressure i know because it squirted on me. thanks for any help. janoga@aol.com

Check for any vacuum leaks, especially in the TID duct and make sure the AFM is hooked up. I had the same problem today as I took off my intake, AFM and TID to look at my turbo for ***** and giggles and when I got everything back together my car wasn't starting. Turned out I forgot to plug my AFM in and my TID wasn't on the turbo (I swear I had it on there...I couldn't really see though, I just tightened the screw.)

Check that stuff first.
