Very old thread
Changing VCTS is always a good thing . The newer ones 07 08 's have to pull valve cover . They do varnish up and screens get plugged . It won't fix broken guides or blown tensioner gaskets . Same with roller and lash adjuster problems . During timing job these can be reused ,cleaned if necessary.
But if you shock this system doing an engine flush be prepared to do a timing job very quickly . Running some marvel m oil is a gentler approach . A lot of us run it all the time after engine job . Keep her clean .

Dying like that doesn't seem to be timing parts related
Of course we would like more info from like tprque pro . Mode six under test results to see if misfire count starting to build up on any cyl .
Cleaning maf,thottle body is aways good .
But your symtoms are common to a vacuum leak , a homemade youtube smoke machine is a great way to find it . It can be all the way back to the gas tank and parts on rear axle /Of course you should check out your FPDM on rear axle . It will fail sooner or later .
Start a new thread, this one way too old and long .
