Turns out that the optical eye in the 89 distributor controls the trigger of the fuel injectors as well as ignition...in a most precise manner at that!

Bought a remanufactured Distributor thru AutoZone, installed it, and now it runs PERFECT! $150 thru my commercial account, not bad when there aren't many options.
