Low fuel pressure from a clogged filter, broken fuel pressure regulator spring, dying pump or torn fuel hose between the sending unit and pump come to mind.

The fuel pressure Should be 9-13 psi, but I have found these TBIs run best at 12-13 psi even stock.

Re: camaro rs 1992 fuel injection problems

The last TBI regulator spring I removed from a car running about like yours with only 5-6 psi of fuel pressure on the gauge looked about like this. The one I had was only in 3 pieces, but same effect. Weak fuel pressure. It would idle perfectly but had long cranking times and fell on its face at any throttle position.
