Default 1985 sd will not idle and other related issues

First time on this forum was hoping for some help. I just bought a 1985 300sd finally got it to start but it wont idle unless I have my foot on the accelerator keeping the engine speed up to at least 800 rpm. Also when I rev the engine up it revs up and spools down , and then stalls.Any ideas? ShouldI change the idle speed, timeing or is it something more involed like an injector. Hope someone here has some sugestions. Thanks in advance.....

Default RE: 1985 sd will not idle and other related issues

Thanks for the advice I tried it to no avail, Hope I pulled the right one there are three toward the rear of the pump. I pulled each one individulaly and none had any effect what so ever. Would a bad injector do this? engine also run rough under 1000rpm
Thanks in advance!
