SC New car, won't start.

I just picked up an '87 TII today, and it ran fine.

I jumped in the car and now it won't start. I unplugged the injector relay, turned the car over for a few seconds, replaced and the car turns over, revs to 1500-2000 then dies. It does this every time. I let the car sit for about an hour and still have the same problem.

HALP?

it was a loose intercooler pipe.

Now to dig through the "running rich!" threads and to figure out why it breaks up so violently past 5k...
