Finally found the issue...
The Ignition control module (mounted inside the distributor) was apparently bad. When the distributor was replaced, apparently this part was re-used.
With that replaced, car is running fine now.
(ps. passed fuel pressure test and leakdown test with flying colors)
Thanks to all for the assistance!

I read over your thread and problem. I have a 94 chevy s-10 blazer tahoe LT with 147,00 miles and have been through the ringer with recent fuel injection issues. Alot of the issues you stated seemed identical to mine so I figured I'd write what I just went through. My blazer decided not to start intermintantly and I ended up having to buy a new fuel injector regulator at a whopping 400 bucks after ruling out all kinds of other things. It ran like a champ for the next 6 months and now my EGR valve is sticking and the truck is running really rich. I just ordered a new one and got that replaced. I know these S-10's are known for these issues. In your list of things replaced I didn't see a fuel injection regulator so I figured I'd mention it. If it's messing up it could be flooding your engine. Just a thought.

i replaced my spider injector, and that appears to have done the trick. it would just spew too much gas into the combustion chambers. it flooded out the engine. would crank over and not start... classic sign of flooding.
fairly straight forward replacement.
it would appear that the fuel pressure test is definitely the place to start. ensure you're getting the proper amount of fuel to the engine. from there, you've diagnosed, or at least ruled a few things out.
best of luck!
