Default starts up but rough idle , floor it runs good let go it dies HELP PLEASE

I have an 89 xj 6 inline.

Swapped some 703's injectors put new o rings no gas leaks or nuthin,

it will start up everytime but it idles rough at just below 1,000 spuuters.

If i rev it up slowly around 2k 3k rpm a little orange arrow turns on and turns back off around 5k rpm and up

if i rev it up fast it wont sputter as much but if i let go of the gas it dies.

If i turn it on and dont rev it it will stay on but idles rough,

wat can be the problem please help asap thanks!!!
