New baby and issues

I just purchased a 1993 Green 9000CSE turbo Automatic. I already own an 88 9000T and an 89 9000. It had issues when I bought it. Most of them are asthetics (split seats, cracked dash, dented hood, among others) but it also has a performance issue. It will barely idle. I did a compression test and cylinder to cylinder results were close. However, while doing this I noted several things. The plugs are black with soot and the tops of the pistons are shiny. I removed the vacuum line from the fuel regulator and could not smell fuel and seemed to hold vacuum with the suck test. Is the fuel pressure regulator still the likely suspect. My other guess might be the AMM but I haven't even been able to locate it on this 2.3 motor. Opinions and suggestions appreciated.
