What are you working on?

I didn't check the resistance on the "new" injectors just assumed 30k injectors from a 2009 were bound to be better than 170k injectors from 2001. And I forgot that you can ohm them to be honest. Lol
I've changed the following
Coil
Cap
Rotor
Plugs
Crank pos sensor
Distributor pickup sensor
PCM
Cleaned and serviced
IAC
Throttle body
I think when the new cat gets here I will put new Oxygen sensors in it too.

Got my spare tire/rim from Discount Tire yesterday. Put them in the trunk on my Brembo package Gt. I just got back from Sears to get a 13/16 deep socket. Put it in a small bag together with my lug key lock and stashed them in the trunk. Still waiting for my ford jack to be totally independent from the gooey stuff that Ford gave us Brembo car owners.

Doesn't seem to get better or worse with temp.
It runs good and the new injectors seemed to have greatly improved the throttle response.
What I'm fighting now is a rough idle.

Have you tried cleaning the MAP?
Also did you reset the IAC (adjust the pintle)?
Check for vac leaks?
When you cleaned the TB did you remove it and REALLY clean it or just spray some cleaner down the venturi?
There is a procedure also for setting the idle throttle plate position. It involves starting the engine without the IAC connected but it has to be done in a way as to kinda trick the computer. I don't know about yours but I had an S10 I had to do it .

Also, have you tried Sea Foaming it?
You can start the engine and remove the brake booster vac line, then pour some seafoam into a container so you can allow the engine to pull it into the vac line VERY SLOWLY so it doesn't kill the engine. It will smoke like crazy but done right it actually does work.

I had the tb off and thoroughly cleaned it.
I thought about seafoaming it but I just had the intake manifold off not too long ago and cleaned all that
I think its either a weak lifter or a burnt valve.
Drove it a little last night and it has a slight tick on the drivers side of the engine. It was doing that when I first got it running again but I flushed the eengine and put in fresh oil and it stopped. But it came back.
