How did you fix your intermittant stalling problem?

My max would almost die, and have the roughest idle when it got warm; I replaced the KS, big coolant temp sensor, pcv, all vacuum lines, fuel filter, spark plugs, and cleaned the intake/plenum/tb while it was out. Now the max has power all of the time, but the idle is still pretty rough, though rock solid on the tach if that makes sense. My front 3 coils all have cracks; per a long ago suggestion by Matt93, I e-taped the fronts temporarily and it helped, but now they have to go- the idle vibration/off idle hestiation has to be caused by that, my slightly outta spec TPS, or my slight exhaust leak (sounds like hole in flex pipe, pray not the exhaust studs!) My injectors ohmed out to 10.8 and 10.9 throughout the whole set, whoot- 135k on the motor
Just sharing some of my findings- I'm going to watch this thread while I save up some more cash to fix this stuff.

Advanced timing and never again. Next tune-up this summer, the regular stuff, new coil packs and IACV.

My stalling was solved by coil packs also, although I did replace alot of other things trying to find the problem.
