Replace plugs, test coils as per FSM (Factory Service Manual) instruction, and test plug wires to ensure they're still good. Additionally I would double check fuel pressure and inspect the Fuel Pressure Damper (FPD).

I would also look at getting compression numbers from the rotors so you know what you have.

ive replaced all filters, plugs, wires. I m the process of flushing the coolant, replacing all other fluid, and getting new hoses and belts. I guess in the mean time i should check compression.
