Well I was told it was a timing issue and the person I bought it from said they have someone work on the timing chain and someone mess up the firing order and the distributor so we had to fix those problem and had to pull and reset the distributor and when you spray starter fluid she fires right up I personally believe it was something up with the fuel system and not the the timing but kept getting told it was timing and not fuel and the engine is running rich so I figured it was either the fuel pressure regulator or the fuel injectors

If it runs with starting fluid it is more than likely a fuel issue. Check fuel pressure with a mechanical gauge. Remove the vacuum hose from the regulator to see if fuel is present. If so, then the diaphragm is bad.
