My car seems to idle fine but will occasionally die on me at a stop light then crank right back up like nothing happened. Under a little throttle the car will miss sometimes. Under full throttle it won't miss at all. It's pretty aggravating and I'm not sure what's causing it. It has new NGK TR6 plugs gapped at .40 I think, might be less. It also has OEM coil packs. Could it be the wires or something fuel related?

do you occasionally wait til your gas tank is really low til you fill up again? if you do it could be your fuel pump that needs replacing.

Have you tried to run codes ?
The last thing you want to do is start throwing parts at it .
Your plug gap seems a bit wide , compared to what others say they run .
As for the fuel pump , you can check fuel pressure with a gauge pretty easy , before going down that road.
