We'll we finally got to the injectors. If it wasn't the injectors, the fuel pump was gonna be next. We was basically throwing new parts at it until we found what was wrong with it.
Thanks for your help. I'm sure your response planted the 1st seed "Hey dad, some guy said it could be the injectors too".

Re: Do ECU's ever go bad in these cars?

Thanks @ASE doc & @Tuned Performance it's 11 years later, and figuring out my faulty injectors was a big major break through with me being able to keep the car! It's been awhile since I been back here, but yeah I'm back here troubleshooting a different issue now, however I did find a few threads as to what my problem might be. It has to deal with the transmission not shifting till near 4000 rpms when its cold. I'm expecting it to get better when the weather warms up though. Anyways I am hoping you guys are still around. Thanks again.
