My Car is being JEWISH(sorrie no offense if implies)

I had a leaky PD on my 87 GXL so i tore it all apart and fixed it... well i put it back together and it ran great at about 2K(typical cold start)... well i went inside to let the car warm up and it just up and died... so i went out and started it again and it wont idle(i have to manually give it gas) then it would idle down to like 200rpm and just die... so i figured no big deal i can still get home... so it sat for like 20min to my buddy jesse left and i went to start my car... it reved to like 1K the ncut out reved to 1K cut out... i pulled off th evac line for the press. senser and the car started but ran rough.. still wont idle so i got half way down the drive and it just died... i plugged the press senser vac hose back on and it started but would not run under 5K and ran extrememly rough back firing the works.. well i got it home and pulled in the dirve let the clutch out(1st gear) and it had no power... got into the gas still no power.. then all of the sudden all the power came back and i got sideways in the drive and almost hit the house... well today i tried to start with no luck but one of the secondary injectors is leakin all over the motor like no tomoorw... wont even try to start now... i tried th edeflodin trick no such luck.. i think its probally a huge vac leak but i am lost... i am used to domestics but for a 16 year old kid i know my ****!!(familly been buildin race car since 8) but i need help ASAP guys so please please help me... thanks Dave

It sounds similar to a vacuum leak I had after lazily installing my bacv blockoff plate. After fixing the leak the car ran normally. Even if it isn't the problem, that leaky injector can't be helping, so that should be addressed. You could always check the fuel filter too. Don't know what else to say but to check all the vac hoses and make sure they aren't all dangling about.
