Does this car have a catalytic converter? If so, check that it isn't plugged.

Also, if you didn't have a fuel filter on it for an unknown length of time, I'd check/replace the injectors. Might be worth it just to replace them. Who knows how badly the spray pattern is disrupted by gunk in the nozzles.

I ran into the injector problem on a '76 280z. Going nutz trying to figure out why two cylinders were intermittently missing. Turns out the injectors had turned into dribblers.
