I had a similar issue with my 88 LX. Not sure what your exact issues are but mine when cold would start, idle a few seconds and quit. The second or third try it would start and stay running. Once the car was warm and I started it, it started everytime. I over time I replaced IAC and TPS and probably tried a few other things. No help. Then I put a fuel pressure gauge on the rail. 32psi. Its been 11 years so my memory is abit hazy but I think it called for stock pressure at 39PSI so I figured fuel pump or regulator. I bought a crane adjustable regulator and set it to 39 psi. Never had a issue with starting again. That may not be your issue but its something to think about. I sure was puzzled when I was working thru my issue.
Always helps to have years of experience. I had a similiar one....its amazing how something so small like a sensor can really ruin your day.

Ah, bad egr could create a vacuum leak to cause that, but it would be all the time...
