erratic idling/slow speed sputter

guys..im having some problem with this idling. it sounds like when you check your ninjectors by taking the connector while its on idle an the power surger up and down...ive check everywhere...change the suspected parts (fuel pum/fuel filter)...and even did a CEL checkking...nothing was wrong...except it has that sputtering thing when you ran slow or at idle...i have to get this done before my 15 days for the emmision test...I failed the first one cos i took of battery which reset the ecu and no info was sendt to the computer to check emmision..help guys...im getting tired of this proble..im suspectiong mybe the plugs or the wires but we did a check for leak in hi tension wire and no leak and compression check everything works fine..i havent pulled the spark plugs..maybe ill do that later...but i did change it at 60k and the car is only at 72 k...thanks

Sounds like your TPS. IT may be bad or maybe needs to be tuned. Mine does the same thing after i did my 1.8L swap and it was the tps.
