This might be a long shot but were you able to figure out what was wrong with yours? I replaced spark plugs and the ignition coils and it still idles very rough.

No codes? It's time to verify fuel pressure and check fuel trims.. Coils can last a long time as long as plugs aren't used for too many miles that the gaps has widened excessively.

Everyone here believes in diagnosing, not blindly replacing parts. Your description is so vague but go ahead and start firing the parts canon. Hopefully you have enough left over for gas.

20 minutes and carb cleaner is not changing parts.

Criticism doesn’t help no one. Friendly reminder this forum is supposed to help each other that don’t know or stuck on something.

fyi- carb cleaner on a TB is considered a NONO. apparently too strong and will/may ruin the special coating. i’ve never tested this warning, but hopefully you didn’t do any damage.
