Idle Issue -Thoughts?

Hey Guys

I just went thru my whole motor and replaces every sensor and hose on it jsut for good measures.

When i drive my car, its drives fine then it starts to jump up and down 100rpm. I changed the IAC and Checked the TPS aswell.

My car has 104k on it. I have yet to change the fuel filter. I was thinking that maybe i have a bad fuel injector or 2. there is a few that have a high pitch noise comming from then when the car is running. Im not up to speed on FI so yeah.

Is it common for Injectors to go bad.? Ive put in cleaner, and run high test.

Thanks for the help
