Then stop throwing parts at it and diagnose the issue. This is going to be your career - right? Get to the bottom of it or quit - the world does not need more sub-par mechanics. Sorry to be down on you but honestly you should see this as a challenge and not act already defeated by it.

Since you already replaced the ignition you need to do some diagnosis work before you go out and replace the fuel system. Put a fuel pressure guage on the fuel rail and see what pressure you get. It could be a clogged filter or good old fashon vapor lock causing the issue.
