Well, I changed the plugs now it has a rough idle. I do not know what to do. I have tried to reset the system it is not working. I have checked all the plugs make sure everything was connected right, it still runs rough.

Sometimes new plugs do that. Drive it for a few miles see if it straightens out. Then check your plug wires and for a vacuum leak.

Okay, check for a vacuum leak and check fuel pressure with a gauge auto parts rent that. should be 60-66 psi with lower number minimum also should hold with in 10 psi for five minutes at least.
