ok guys so ive been checking things out as i can cuz ive been workin a ****load lately.. anyone got any suggestions??
the car will start when sprayed with starting fluid then shuts down, sometimes it will idle but if you try to bring it off idle it dies.

heres some stuff..
1) changed fuel filter
2) spark plugs are ok (about 10k miles on them)
3) have spark (used 2 style testers, one with an LED and the other you set the gap and watch for spark...had plenty of spark)
4) used a noid light (blinks when cranking)
5) fuel pump runs (primes 2 seconds when turned to accessory)
6) checked fuel pressure (45 lbs when ignitions on, when it does run the pressure drops to 38 lbs.)
7) checked TPS (ok, also replaced with a new one and same thing, set at correct voltage)
8.) changed cap and rotor
9) pumped some gas into a glass jar and there was no water apparent
10) checked for codes, there were no codes just the code 12
11) unplugged MAF and there was no change..

could it be bad gas? any ideas would be appreciated.. i really need this thing on the road
