    Re: What is wrong with my car?

    Pulled all the plugs, they are fine.. they have -1000 miles on them anyways and the cables as well (MSD cables, TR6 plugs)... Car is @ 99xxx MI if it helps anything.
    Wait, Is that a V6 or V8?

        What do i do?
        Looks to me like you should try a throttle position sensor.

          Does that require replacing the whole TB?

                          I will ask around but i think i still need a coil pack, just wish it would tell me what cylinder specifically.

                            You can check by pulling a wire from a coil one at a time (NOT while its running, getting shocked by a coil doesnt feel good, lol)and see if it changes when you take the trouble coil wire off. If no change or no obvious coil spark it's likely that puticular coil you pulled the wire off, if it does change then it's probably something else.
                            Have you tried checking the coils?

                            It could be your TPS sensor if you have checked the coils.

                              You get these codes, and determine its a coilpack?
