It quite possible isn't. One of the biggest problems with the 82 is the fuel pump. If you choose to replace it go with a pump from a 1985.

You need to be more specific. Whats it doing. Does it idle? Does it run?. Does the idle surge or drop dramatically?

When you turn the key to on do you hear the pump from behind you(its in the tank) turn on for a few seconds?

Have you had the air cleaner off? Are both injectors spaying a nice cone pattern?

Since you are a new owner. Just a warning. Don't make any adjustments to the throttle bodies> Don't try adjusting the screw on the linkage. You will through the car so far off that you may never find your problem. If the throttle bodies have already been tampered with that another thing.
