LOL at you. You are STILL just replacing stuff blindly. Yes you need a tune, but damn, I would have fixed the problem first, or at least figured out what it was.
Tossing parts at a problem it THE most ineffective way off fixing the problem itself. This board is littered with people that totally guess at **** and tell others to replace such and such a part because 5.287 years ago on my 93 firechicken, in the dead of winter, with 17 feet of snow on the ground, this problem I had, which is kinda sorta simliar to yours, was fixed by doing this and this ....

My opinion: Suggestions are great when enough information is given to come up with an educated/experienced answer. When the information given is very basic, and then wild suggestions are tossed, it just confuses the original post maker into thinking he can and should toss parts at the car hoping it fixes it. I'm just trying to help people learn to diagnose their problems. It will save them money and frustration in the long run, and they gain knowledge.

It does make it a little hard to decide what to do when 15 different people give you 15 different answers.
Def. sounds like a cam or crank sensor... but who knows.. def. let us know who wins the grand prize... hahaha... As for fuel pump going out, i wouldn't bank on it... mine makes noises like a ***** suckin' dick and it works just fine for now... trust me and please try out the cam sensor first.. and don't buy one, just borrow a friends and test it out...

opti or fuel pump???? just an uneducated guess . g'luck with tracking it down.
any codes?
a fuel pressure gauge has to mount to your fuel rail off of the schraeder valve. they are relatively inexpensive, and just good to have on the car for long term. it is something i would throw money at all day long. just my honest opinion
