305pti running bad

My 85 iroc 305 tpi started running awful. So I did the normal tune up. Cap,rotor,wires and plugs and o2sensor and changed the oil and filter. Car was still running awful so I bypassed the est and set the timming to 6btdc . Still no change . So I changed the fuel filter and pvc. Checked all injectors and their all at 11 - 13.

Any suggetions would be appreciated !!
