there is an idle control motor on the throttle body that may be at fault.
you have thrown way too many parts at this with no results. have a shop do a real diag for you and tell you the failure.

i replaced most of it cuz i bought it from a friend...(some friend) but ive had a few ppl look at it and they say it should be running. i just cant figure out what else it could be? ill try that and see what happens... timing is on and the harmonic balancer pulley was loose but i fixed that too?
