Another idea: I forgot the connector to the throttle position sensor (I think, the one below the idle control valve on my 850, hard to see if you are not looking for it).
My symptoms on start up: 3000 rpm idle and a check engine light. I dont know if it would stall after ten seconds because I turned the engine off before that.
After that I found the problem and unhooked the battery for a few minutes to clear codes and started it!

Well, jblackburn was right again. I thought I took the bracket on the right off but when I took the manifold off there it was. Thanks for the help. Car is running great since all the maintenance is done! I've done a complete stage zero!

Woot! Always nice to find out it was something simple. Can't even tell you how many times I've done those kinds of things.
