Running Rough at Idle
My Jeep has been idling really rough recently. I've had issues with a rough idle since I bought the thing, and they keep going away and coming back. Here's a list of what I've replaced so far:
Spark Plugs
Cap
Rotor
Wires
Distributor
MAP Sensor
TPS
Fuel Filter
I also cleaned the throttle body pretty well too. I'm kinda stumped as to what this could be. My fuel pump is buzzing pretty loud and as far as I know that's an indication it's about to die. Could the Fuel Pump be causing the problem? It's a '96 with the 4.0 and 154,500 miles on it. Any help is appreciated.

I'm getting a random misfire code. This only happens below 950RPM. It seems to me that the warmer the vehicle gets, the smoother it runs, but it's not too big of a difference. Stryker, I did not clean the IAC, where exactly is it? I don't know if it has any vac leaks or what the fuel pressure is because I don't have the tools to check them. I'll see if I can have a friend help me out with that.
