Re: 1988 350 TBI idles funny, stalls when put in gear, and accels rough...

Ok Update.

The injectors are "misting" I'm not sure I would call it a fine mist, but maybe it is. Either way, bought the regulator rebuild kit from Autozone, with new diaphram and spring, and gaskets. Put this together and it has improved, but still not fluid, even wants to die going in reverse very slowly just a short distance.

I've heard harbor freight has an inexpensive fuel pressure gauge, reads up to 15psi. Any experience with one of these?

As for the EGR valve...

You can see 2 ports on the left, one on the right (What exactly is this part?). The right goes to the TB, left (at least the one that's connected) to the EGR Valve. I have zero vacuum on egr side, but I am getting good vacuum to the throttle body.

Here is the overall look.

Also it seems to Rev fine in park. Seems peppy, feel it torqueing a bit.
