87 Z24 Pickup help

I was driving down the road and noticed that i had missed my turn. i stopped and did a turn around, and when i was coming out of reverse into first i killed it. Yay. Anyways, i went to start it back up and all it did was crank over. I was like wtf becuase the truck doesnt have that many miles on it and it always, always starts up the first time when i turn it over. So im sitting here like what am i supposed to do. So i pull a plug wire and put it next to the ground on the block and it sparks. theres plenty of power, spark and the engine turns over just fine but wont start. So next i start checking electrical things like fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay. The fuse wasnt bad but i had no way of checking the relay, but it was pretty warm. So i went to crank it over for the last time and it sputtered like it was going to start but never did. It has been idling very high, probably like 1500rpm ever since i bought it a month or so ago.. The fuel filter looks new but ill need to check it. Also i heard the soleniod in the carburetor for the mixture becomse unsealed and becomes bad. If anyone has had any similar problems please let me know, any help is greatly appreciated. Never any sputtering or dying EVER before that. Just a high idle. Plenty of spark and power other than that.
Thanks, Nick
