86 fc na it'll start fine, idle round 2k spits n pops when give more gas let go back to idle sits at 2k stays there til reach opperating temp then dies unless manually give lil throttle. If let go dead will not start back for cpl hrs.

I've replaced fuel pump, sock, blew out fuel lines, replaced upper intake gasket soon as i got the car cuz it had cpl lil fuelline leaks, b4 i fixed fuel leaks it would start up idle fine, had full throttle controll. I've taken it back apart lookin for vaccumm leaks or something i left unplugged so many times i can do up intk with eyes closed lol i did try unpluggin bac which had no effect. I'm concerned cuz it ran so good with fuel lead now it like crap. I have no idea what to do next

After doing some further testing my BAC solenoid has correct ohm reading and clicks when touching test leads to it. I have not yet found a 2k ohm resistor to be able to test BAC valve. Also tested fuel pressure at regulator, had 0 lbs with or without vaccum hooked up.Took regulator off and used vac pump to further test it and the diaphram did not move with 25lbs vac on it so i'm pretty sure its bad. I know i have one bad injector but had no problems driving it almost 500 miles to home other than seemed to be flooding some. I moved that injector to a seconary slot til new one comes in. Could that injector cause me to get bad fuel pressure reading at regulator? I would really appreaciate any input.
Also i found that after it warms up and dies i can now get it to start back up if i unplug the BAC solenoid. If don't unplug it it will not start back up.
I'm so confused and really don't understand theese rotary engines yet and really want to learn more. There is no one in my town that will touch it including my boss at the mechanic shop i work at lol
