Hi
Have you checked for codes? What is engine compression? Assume all the parts replaced made no difference? Any backfiring? Loss of fuel milage?
Let me know

Ohm check two sensors the Engine coolant temp and Air intake temp sensor. The ECT is next to thermostat and IAT in air intake. They should ohm out at 86 degrees- 2238 ohms, 104 degrees-1459 ohms, 212 degrees- 177ohms.
