Default 1986 vw golf running lean?

when you first turn on the car it bounces the idle. it will leel out after a minute. but when you hit the gas it sputters, sometimes cutting off. the car is a stroker motor. 2.0 aba bottom end with 1.8 head and a mild cam. the fuel air ratio is reading lean when you get on the gas and rich when your just cruising. i believe the problem originated on a 5 hour drive the fuel line clogged. we thought a injector was bad so we pulled all the injectors. cylinder 4 was dry. after discovering that line was clogged we fixed it but the car is still having the same problem of sputtering out. Possible vaccum leak? soe one told me the seals were bad on the injector so it was bringing in air. ive been looking all over cant find anywere that sells them. and what gets me is it was acting the same way with the fuel issue as it is now that thats fixed.

I see you've posted in a mk6 GTI forum and the replies aren't happy you've posted in there? Its now been moved to General car news and discussion.
