1989 IROC has issues

My wifes IROC stalled on her one day, so I got it started and brought it home. It had a very rough Idle and lost power. I have been messing with it for over a month, and during that time I found 3 bad injectors so I replaced all of them with bosch III's, I replaced the cap, rotor, plugs and wires, checked timing, cleaned the MAF sensor, checked several times for vacuum leaks and changed the IAC motor. I have had no trouble codes either. I decided to buy a cable and download the tunerpro program instead of changeing parts. I got it to work and it showed that the car was running rich(I think, because the value was in red at 14.92 and the exhaust smells rich), it also showed the MAP sensor at 1.92 which someone told me is the problem, but it has a MAF sensor and that value changed with rpm. Is there anywhere I can find normal values so I know what is working right? Pleas help point me in the right direction, I refuse to take this to anyone!!!

Re: 1989 IROC has issues

You either have a MAP of a MAF. Can't have both.
I don't know how to program but I get mine program on a dyno by a club member. If your tuner says there is a problem with you MAP you're running the wrong program.
