check compression first then do a freeze frame and check values as it could be a maf sensor or any other thing , these are really hard to diagnose Also check fuel pressure and check resistance of injectior. If compression ok and injector ok pull valve cover to see if lifter/follower damage. injector should be11-14 ohm
