Exclamation Help: Starts for a moment then stalls

im having a problem starting my 88 fc turbo when i turn the key it will start but then the rpm will drop down and it will shut off. i have take the key out and then start over usually it will start easily the second time. if i push the accelerator in while it starts to turn over it some times will start. could this be a problem with the starter???

It's likely that either the injectors are leaking or the engine is tired.

Also I've edited your subject line with something a little more descriptive.

Edit...Also make sure your AFM is plugged in.
