Terminal misfire

I have made many posts about this issue and I want to let everyone know what I have replaced and what I think the problem is I just need a better opinion from people who know the car better than me. I have replaced The Who ignition system new plugs new oem coil packs and new connectors along with valve cover gaskets and covers but I think my problem might be fuel because I’m getting proper ignition and air but it’s running lean so I suspect it’s fuel and if I’m not mistaken I think the fuel filter should be replaced every 60,000 miles and it has not been replaced in probably 200,000 or more I just really need help I’m 16 and this is my first car if anyone could help me with finding the right parts or giving info on if you’ve had the same problem I would be most grateful.

Always the best 1st … or at least 2nd … step.

These are not tech-rittled vehicles (thank you Lord) but the ECU will communicate effectively with you if you ask it to.
