The car is driving me nuts. It was surging and I found a loose TPS and it instantly went away. Then a day later I do a pull and it feels strong but then when I pull over to let it cool It is idleing at the right rpm but is missing. It's like a quick miss to, it will not die or sounds like its about to.

So I check each wire and they arc in the wells so I know spark is good. Put all new parkplugs in even though the ones in there looked nic a grey on the electode and the porciline was white. Compression is good and it still drives good in and out of boost. If I push the clutch in it does want to die and either does or bounced at 100 then catches itself and goes to 900-1000 in neutral.

Checked the CAS harness and it seems to be good. Also pulled the injector plugs off and all had an effect when pulled. I don't think the injectors are dirty and there is a new filter on incase.

Anyone want to point me in a direction
 
I checked the coil pack and it seems fine. Anyone know the resistance on the injectors to see if maybe I have a bad one. Though the pushing in the clutch and the car dies makes me think other things.
