Thanks for the post Kickstand, well yes major progress. 

the last thing i did was put the dizzy back together and I got spark . Howshe still would run . It would turn over and start only when i put fuel in the intake . 

Dreading what the issue could be I ran the diagnostic I first did when I got her , 

Spark - Check

Fuel Pressure_ check 

Spark plugs fouled - Check they are clean 

So what could it be ? Lets pull the injectors as see if they are firing , ( yes I know the electrical diagnosis for this procedure , But I found the last time it was way easier to just pull the fuel rail and put cups under them and see if they spray ) 

Pull out the rail and crank it over and WHAT!!!!!!! dripping from the injectors????? I quickly look over to see the pressure gauge at 45lbs I stop and try it again ... this time they barely drip.

Are you kidding me ? their practically new . So I pull them out and ........ Ill let the pictures tell the story .  

 

YUp 2 pounds of sand and other debris in the tank . the injectors were clogged shut !!!!!

Three days later  of pulling out the whole fuel system ( tank, lines, injectors, pump ) with a full wire brush out of the gas tank. clean out of all fuel lines and repaint the tank ( which was in crazy good shape ) 

I am praying I can start putting everything back in this weekend . Ill keep you informed .

What happened to the fuel filter?  Should have caught that stuff and caused low fuel pressure.

If you were getting 45 psi that implies that the FPR is clogged.  Better check that too.  Might be hard to clean.  That's a lot of crud.  You can back flow the injectors with a 9 volt battery and some hoses.  Good luck.
