O2 sensor/A-F mixture. Start there. Clear your stored codes, and then see if the same CEL codes get regenerated. Test your O2 sensor as thoroughly as possible (research archives for how-to, etc.), and/or replace if in doubt. Several ~$35 Bosch PNs will work fine. Solder & stagger splices. Not uncommon for old sensor to be seized: soak w/PB, Kroil, what have you. Use tight 7/8" (I think)

Also ck all O2 sensor support wiring, per schematic, going thru the 6-pin connector (RF wheel), etc., i.e., trace/test all 3 O2 sensor wires, away from sensor, to their respective terminations, including a visual ck (as much as possible) for rubbed off insulation (one goes to grnd, one to ECU, etc)

If no joy, then:

Did you get a ground at AMM harness connector #4 w/ignition on?

Does fuel pressure restore quickly after pinching/releasing fuel delivery line?

Can't recall if we already mentioned these:

ck both your NTC/coolant temp sensor and TPS resistance values (per Bentley & prob in Haynes). Don't just spot ck or ck at extremes, but rather ck at several temps & throttle positions.

both LH system and fuel pump relays good?

you replaced the AMM, IIRC? Doesn't guarantee good - sometimes takes a 3rd unit - but let's assume good for now

ck that air filter is reasonably clean/air intake not partially blocked

Still other possibilities:

AIC can be can be acting up, operating at non-idle (when it shouldn't be)

partially clogged and/or poor fuel injector spray pattern

if you have a timing light, altho timing is automatic, confirm that timing mark is very steady (to ck for a worn distributor)

ignition key shorting out

the ignition amplifier had a separate relay MY 86&87, but not other MYs, AFAIK
