OK, I took my `89 out of storage after 5 yrs. I replaced the Water pump, New Power Steeing Pump, New Wires, New Plugs, New battery, New Fuel Filter. It starts up and will run if I keep hitting the gas Pedal. But, It wont hold an Idle. Help!! it`s a 5spd.
 
Problems

Probably a vacuum leak. Look over any vacuum tubing for cracks etc and replace as necessary.
You could be leaking from the intercooler tubing as well.
you can find leaks by spraying carb cleaner on the connections as its running and the rpm's will change when it suck some in thru the cracks/hole etc.
