OK, I'm back after a few hours of messing around with this thing.

Bruce, great tip on the ground, I didn't even know it was there. Although 2 out of 3 wires weren't too bad, the 3rd was pretty ugly. I cleaned, wire brushed and sanded everything, also got the ground on the rail across from the exhaust manifold that comes from the battery. Cleaned tightened anything else I saw ground related.

Verified fuel pressure is good, so not the pump, definitely electric and not the coil/amp. Starts great now, but we'll see how she does.

Will check voltage coming to RSR to make sure main relay is good, should this happen again. But, I'm thinking for 30 beans I throw a new main relay in as that is the only thing even remotely old in the set up as daughter mostly drives this machine. She can't drive stick so can't drive my turbo Golf (probably good).

Thanks for all the great tips
