Default Re: 88 lx 5.0 needs help!

Well, I changed plugs out again, to no avail. EGR was bad, replaced it, as well as TPS, still not fixed. Noticed there were two vacuum solenoids on the right front inner fender on the the rear of the engine compartment that were damp with some gas, presumably from where the reg went bad and flooded the plenum and vacuum lines, I took them apart and cleaned them, that seemed to do the trick with getting the car running right and taking out the majority of the miss. But now I have severe idle surge, almost dropping to the point of killing itself, also running super rich. I've tried almost everything I can think of to narrow the problem down, but am having a heck of a time with it. Any ideas?
Keep in mind, I have just bought this car and don't have much idea about what mods previous owners have done to tune the car.
