May still have a fuel pressure issue. What size engine is this? Should do a fuel pressure bleed down test that would check the spider injection system. Fuel pressure should be up between 56 to 63 lbs at the Schrader Valve on the intake manifold.

I suspect the spider assembly needs replacing. The older ones tend to leak, and for best results the spider assembly should be replaced if bad. Do a fuel bleed down test by hooking up a fuel pressure gauge to the Schrader Valve on top of the intake manifold. Cycle the key on/off until fuel pressure builds up and then with the key off, watch the fuel pressure gauge. The pressure should not drop more than 5 lbs in 3 minutes. If it does, then replace the spider injection assembly as a hole unit. They are re-designed from original.
