I have replaced the fuel pump, distributor cap and rotor and the crankshaft position sensor, and finally got it started. Starts fine but now below 2000 rpm, it has a minor miss, slowly accelerating up intermittently around 1800 rpm especially, it sounds just like it is out of time, pops and cracks, but if I move the accelerator on up it quits and runs fine, above 2000 rpm it runs fine, no miss. What can I check or maybe some pointers of where to go from here.

Have you checked for vacuum leaks? Make sure the EGR is not sticking and not carboned up.

Let me know what you find.
