Talking SC400 idle issue....

To begin with my name is Valdez, missed the intro thread my mistake...

Anywho, Im a proud owner of a 92 SC400. Purchased the car as a project about 4 months ago with all (or majority of the engine harness unplugged). Some far the car has been a work in progress and coming along decently. Car runs decently...but now comes the issue. After the car was brought back to life, it ran fine for a while, then suddenly starting having issues staying on. Like...if i drive it for 30 minutes and turn the car off somewhere...try to restart it and cranks up and dies like it's not getting gas. It sounds like its choking to stay crank. After about 3 to 4 cranks, its fine. Fuel pump works fine. Buddy said could be a leaking injector... and i have no knowledge about leaking injectors. Can any of u SC boys fill me in on what your diagnosis might be. Could it be a simple injector cleaning process or something? Hell if I know. I'm here to learn LOL.

Could be a bad coil pack. Numerous posts on here with people having the same symptoms marrow it down to 1 or both of the coil packs.
