If it doesn't start when cold what about the cold start injector?
and...........
Fuel Injector O-rings can be tested by spraying (FLAMABLE) liquid or 
either/starting fluid at them to see if his idle rises.

Have you checked the injector seals?

Touching the gas and having the engine die sounds exactly like a too 
lean
situation.  On my 85 urq I went around and around and found that all my
injector seals were loose.  We removed each injector and just tightened 
each
seal and cured what amounted to a serious vacuum leak.  They're not all 
in
hoses.
