The throttle pos controller malfunction is what i would tackle next.

Chec the condition of the throttle body.

would you happen to know the location of the tempature sensor? because I can't seem to find it.

In the back of the engine on the passenger side. Bolted into the rear coolant pipe (runs across the engine in the back).

I have the misfire down to 2 cylinders and I'm going to check those fuel injectors, but I've noticed something else it takes a long time for my temperature to get up a little bit it never does get half way no matter what and there's no hot air in the car for a long time, would a thermostat stuck open cause this?
