Low fuel pressure can also cause random misfire. Change the fuel filter and check fuel pressure at the rail.

Then check fuel pressure. A plugged fuel filter can cause random misfires.

update: changed ICM today and checked fuel pressure, also got 4 cyclinders compression checked (range 135-165). Going to attempt fuel filter tomorrow, that'* pretty much my last effort.

fuel filter changed, fuel pressure at 42#, checked all the coil packs, checked voltage at FI connections, changed ICM and switched injectors and still have the same problem at low rpm'*. I talked with someone yest who said it could be the throttle body, any one heard of this?
