like when i change my fuel filter i pull the fuel pump fuse, start the car and let it die, it depressurizes the fuel pump allowing me to change the filter without gas shooting everywhere, could have fueling problems i dunno you asked for ideas just putting it out there, spark plugs i guess are more likely to cause missfires instead so cross them out

clean your tb as well. I know when mine was going out, the cold made it much worse.

spark plugs, clean maf sensor, fuel filter
Have you done the above? Not just the TB. The plugs can foul early due to the rich stock tune and aggressive driving habits. I have an 07 delta and I have already changed my fuel filter at 25k and my spark plugs twice. Occasionally it could be shitty gas.
