Check throttle position sensor. If it doesnt work right it can cause this. have someone check and see if any codes have been set by the "brainbox" some tps can be adjusted all depends on which one you have. ask parts dealer if this is one that can be set. If not replace it. most tps on olds,chevrolets,etc. have 3 wires. one is 5v in, gnd, and voltage out. most are set between .5 -.7volts at idle.

Check the ignition timing is correct. I see that you have changed the wires so I suggest that you recheck the firing order for the plugs as it is easy to get it wrong when replacing the leads.

94 olds 88 want start

yes it can be the security system, find the two all white wires at the bottom of the steering column and cut them and solder the correct ohm resistor in between you will need an ohm meter to measure the resistance of the chip on the ignition key then install that omh resistor to the wires.

Engine dies at 150 degrees.

sounds like its not accident related, more like a idle air control motor or something of that nature, ive also herd of this happening when the crank sensor is going bad, it warms up and starts missing the signal.

94 jimmy will not run bad fuel pressure regulator?

Nothing wrong with the regulator. That is how it is supposed to work, it sounds normal.
I guess you will have to get to the spider to see what is wrong. Fuel delivery to the pot seems normal. Could be something to do with injector circuit, IDK. Sorry can't help more.
