Still wont start compression tested ok

i purchased the 88 SE from NGKTECH got it home a while back, started working on with little luck. i got the car to run (actually i drove it not to long after i got it home) the problem i had at first with the car is that you had to keep it reved above 3000 rpm or it stalled out right away.

then one day going to drive it on the trailer she started right up ran perfect. sounded great drove great good power.........
shut it off...
10 min later curiosity got to me go start it again same thing
all is well
i have a car that fixes itself
i am happy

THE NEXT DAY
wake up in a good mood things are going well want to drive the latest addition to the fleet and all goes wrong. cranking cranking cranking ... nothing! wtf? try deflooding...
nothing but cranking cranking ......

ever since that cold cold day she will not run
good fuel
has spark
compression approx 72 psi per rotor (checked on leading plugs not sure if thats accurate)
new battery
