poor acceleration, running roughly
This problem occurred because the fuel injectors were not sealed air tight to the intake manifold. By removing the injectors, cleaning the seals and where they seat on the intake manifold, and reinstalling, the problem was resolved.
Car was able to be driven, just barely. Replacing the injector fixed the problem.
