Has there been any testing? What happens after it dies?? restart?
Restart & dies again? How does the engine perform when it does run?

Fuel pressure is the key to a good running car with CIS injection system.
Since the car has been sitting (how long?) fuel delivery is the most probable issue.

Just b/c you have pressure does not mean you have spec flow...
Leave the pressure gauge on the car when it runs and see if it drops as the car stalls..............

Perhaps the fuel distributor has varnish/gunk in it from sitting so long?
