By what you are describing, I would try these suggestions in this order:

- Check to see if your pressure sensor will hold a vacuum. Use your mouth to
suck on a clean hose that you put on this PS just for this test ;-). You
should be able to suck on it to create a vacuum, then cap off the hose with
your tongue. It should hold a vacuum.
- Check your fuel pressure, should be a constant 29 or 30.
- Check your coil by substituting a known good coil.
- If you have a Bosch condenser, then you are probably OK, but if you have
another brand - you might want to try replacing it with a Bosch.
