starting problem

PLEASE HELP.

I am extemeley frustrated, I have owned my 1975 911 2.7CIS for 4 months now and I still cannot drive it. I have spent over $3500 trying to fix the starting problem and I am not closer to finding the problem !!!!

I have replaced the following:

1)New Fuel distributor Head
2)New Fuel accumulator
3) New fuel filter
4) New check valve on fuel pump
5) New decel valve.
6) New fuel line from pump to accumulator.
7) 6 New fuel injectors
8) New ignition leads,
9) New spark plugs,
10) reconditioned alternator,
11) New Battery,
12) New ignition coil
13) New distributor cap,
14) New points


Last week I took my car to porsche so they could adjust the fuel/air mix on the new fuel distributor. They also did a pressure tests and a leak down test. They discovered that there was a pressure leak and rcomended I replace the injectors. BUT Now that I have replaced the injectors It still won't start.

Just to clarify my problem, the engine keeps turning over but it takes many many goes before it starts, usually draining the battery. Once the car starts it runs o.k now. If you turn the ignition off and let it sit for about 5 minutes it will start o.k but if you leave it for 15 min or longer it won't start.
