My 95 GT has been having some issues. Recently had a problem with my car blowing the fuse for the fuel pump. Got it sorted out, and put some new tune up parts on the car. I did a new dizzy (reman), coil, plugs, wires and fpr. After these parts were installed the car is not enjoying life at all. Has a SUPER rough idle, or will not idle at all. Also while cruising at low Rpms, there is a miss every few (1-3) seconds. However the miss goes away if I'm at WOT. I've cleaned the IAC, and checked the voltage at the tps which was fine and no luck on either of them. Any ideas?

They've both been checked a million times. Timing is spot on 10* spout out. The balancer has less than 5000 miles on it so I know it hasn't spun.*

I had a thought yesterday though. Could a bad alternator cause my problems? Mine is on its way out big time. Noisy bearings, low voltage at idle etc. Could the voltage drop low enough at idle or under light load (cruising flat ground @ 2000 Rpms) to mess with the sensors? Like they wouldn't be getting enough power to function properly.*

I've been fighting with this car for 4 months now and I'm almost ready to give up

as long as its still putting out voltage I would not think it would be the problen no matter how loud. TPS is quick and easy to check and can cause these problems.

What is the fuel pressure set to with the vacuum off the reg.?
What voltage is the alt putting out?
Did you also ck the ohm's of the TPS through it's range of motion? There may be a dead spot in the TPS causing the idle issue.
