What do you mean no charging system? No Alternator?

May be stupid but are ur fuel lines clogged I had an 88 gtu and for a few weeks it tripped over its self when I hit the gas and went over 3k and had jumpy idle almost dying, then just died one day put more gas in it and didn't start I thought it was the fuel pump. Shop said worked fine had to be electrical or somethin injectors wasn't spraying car sat for 3 months trying everything till I decided to try a diff fuel line cuz I found out no fuel came out of mine and ran fine after that may not be wats wrong but I'd check the fuel spraying out of ur lines just for the hell of it
