2002 Ex V10 clean injectors?

Just purchased a 2002 Ex from GSA. 88K miles. Just had plugs replaced but engine still running rough when stopped. Feels like it is skipping? Thought changing the plugs would fix it but it didn't. Should we clean the injectors next or have them check the coils? I appreciate any thoughts or suggestions anyone may have.

Coils and the IAC (Idle Air Control) valve would be a good place to start...

I'm a dyed in the wool fan of TECHRON fuel additive.

I ran through two tanks of Techron treated gas last month. My skipping went away. I still bought new plugs and boots for the heck of it and put them in. runs like a champ now. I too thought it might be a coil. but everything seems ok. The link below is where I posted about it.

Probably not a bad idea to run some sea foam thru it also. If you search for it you will come up with the instructions on where to use it.

What is your axle? 3.73 or 4.30? I have 4.30 limited slip V10 and my overhead console says 10.3 mpg. I'm wondering if adding the Techron cleaner would improve mpg. Thanks.
