First, of all, thanks for the advice earlier. Having actually seen the car, I've decided it's only really worth anything as a parts car, which I am ok with; I mostly bought it for the interior. That said, I'd prefer to have it running just to not get hassled about it.

I'll try to upload a video later this weekend, but basically, it doesn't idle particularly well, and gets worse at higher underhood temps. Once it gets hot (90-100 F on the outside temp meter, ~85-90 C coolant temp), it will stall whenever I put it to drive, once it is cooled down, it will make it maybe a few minutes before stalling again. It bucks and sputters just before stalling, which at first made me think it is a fuel issue, however, I've bridged 7-8 on the FPR, which, near as I can tell totally bypasses the FPR, and it still stalls. Also the CPS puts out ~900 ohms just before this stalling condition. The PO replaced the fuel pumps within the last year, and I would assume the fuel filter as well, I don't want to pull the tank strainer in the parking lot it's at, but I don't think it would be that anyway. The other possible cause I can think of without digging deep into it is the plugs and wires, which are almost certainly not correct.

Also, I'm curious what this element attached to the fuel distributor is, and if that might affect the stalling.
