Unhappy 04 mustang gt idle issues

New to the mustang world. I have a 2004 mustang gt v8 4.6L. I ended up having to change the timing chain/guides due to a guide breaking. After that it would idle fine then it started to idle strange every once and a while. I put it into gear and it bogs down and kills it. I ran the OBDII but like I said I'm new to what it's suppose to be at timing° and all my IGN ADVICE (°) is at 24.0 the MAF ( LB/M ) is 0.82 and the ABSLT TPS (%) is 16.5. If any of these is off, help on what one would be very appreciated. I got the car with some issues it's a beautiful car and need to get the issue fixed. Thanks for taking the time!!

On these engines they require timing work?! Huh? I've had a 4.6 truck and I currently have a 5.4L in my expy and I never heard anyone touching chains in these motors?

Well I had a timing chain guide snap, so there was no choice but to change it out. Or continue to listen to the chain slap around.
