I checked the spark plugs the were not fowled, but I replaced them anyways. I checked the injectors the are working. the next thing I am going to check is the timing. Any other suggetions are welcome.

From the searches that I have read through the most common problem was a lose wire. As stated from other people in your past post check all wires even the starter below.

Check to see if your distributor cap is lose or if your distributor is rotating.

Spark, make sure your spark is an intense white/blue and not yellowish. Yellowish means weak coil, bad wire(s), or battery needs charging.
