Did the work today. Replaced all the parts lsmalley suggested as well as the injectors and the injector holders and cleaned the ICV. Everything went well other than having a hell of a time backing the EGR tube off the intake manifold and it took almost half hour to get the MAF boot to seat on the TB correctly. When I started the car after the job, it threw code #4-airflow sensor potentiometer for some reason, but I cleared it and it hasn't come back. My idle is smoother and acceleration feels more effortless through the middle of the rev range. Before there was good power on top, but getting her to move while cruising took quite a bit of throttle input. This is what I've read from other people who replaced their worn injectors so I'm glad I went ahead and swapped them while I was in there. I also haven't had the rough start condition that was there, but that seemed to occur at random. Hopefully it's been fixed too.
I tested the EGR and the idle does get rough when opening the valve. That's what the tech was looking for, so I will go back to the smog spot tomorrow and get her passed.
Thanks so much for the help! I really appreciate it.
