88 RX7 starts but doesn't stay running
I have an 88 Rx7 non turbo. Last year it was flooding a lot, so I parked it. I was going to rebuild engine but after reading around the forums, I checked compression and it was good, so I replaced the injectors and now it starts every time right away. The problem is that it does not stay running. After testitng, I can get it to run and stay running only if I prop open the flap on the AFM. It runs rough, but it runs. What does this mean? what else should I test?
thanks for any and all advice

the car starts and runs now. the problem that I had was that I did not have the whole air intake attached and screwed on , so it would not create enough vacuum to suck the AFM flapper in.
now the issue is idle is too low, so it runs rough on idle. I tried playing around with the screw on top but it is not making much of a difference. Anyone have any ideas?
thanks
