AnswerYou've done most of the fuel and ignition components. Have you looked into anything concerning airflow? It will give the same results as if something was wrong with the fuel delivery. You may need to clean the throttle body, or idle air motor. Checked for blocked air passages, air filter, etc. It still could be another part of the fuel delivery system. Depending on what bosch system is used on that car different things could cause it. If its using D-jet then it as run off of vacuum. You don't have to throw parts at it to find the problem, just look over anything that could cause the problem and then start eliminating ones that are working properly. Hope that helps.
