1986 911 No Start

Hello

I'm working on a 86 911 that fires, runs for a few seconds then immediately dies. Common issues cht sensor, fuel pressure regulator and dme relay seem ok. When running for a few seconds the car sounds solid, no backfire or odd sounds or missing.

cht 4.2 ohms measured at the connector on the intake manifold (white connector on top)

fuel pressure is 40psi when I manually actuate the pump at the dme relay connector, ~30psi residual (after ~20min)

replaced dme relay

I was told the injectors have been serviced.

The car has been sitting for a long time. I replaced a bad breather hose (engine to oil tank) and cleaned tons of black crap from the air flow meter and throttle body. Tracing a vacuum leak I found the charcoal canister is missing. I plugged the large and small vacuum lines coming from the engine.

I'm basing tests and results on Bentley #s and everything passes. I went through the test in the Bentley and no smoking gun.

What am I missing? thanks for your help
