Default Spark problem in b16

My car keeps misfireing when im just driving regular. I know its a spark problem. I changed out my rotor in the distributor, spark plugs, and spark plug wires. And its still misfireing. Can someone tell me any other parts that could be messed up for it to be misfireing like this?

When i say misfireing I mean the car is jerking back slightly. And it usually does it at a low rpm. Thanks for the help.

you could be having problems injecting fuel, or running to rich.

Could be the coil i suppose, or the distributer its self. Sorry this probably isn't much help...

Does it ever misfire at WOT even while running that low? If, by going WOT, can you cure the misfire?
