Post 944 idles fine but stalls when accelerating..

I am looking at an 86 944, 5 spd and 117k miles. Havent seen the car in person - but this is the problem as listed.. idles fine but stalls when accelerator is applied.
any ideas- Injectors? DME? Old Gas?
I have no idea the current condition of the vehicle or how long it has been sitting, but will be seeing it soon.. <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" />

Yes- this would be Porsche #2.. Cheaper and much more fun than a used honda accord.
Thanks in advance.

Got the willing mechanic, still sourcing parts for the 924s. <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" />

Bad AFM could cause this problem.

mine did this, but it would go away after it had warmed up for 2-3 minutes. Changed out the fuel pressure reg. and it's been perfect ever since.
