Default b16 running/idling rough.

my b16 was running perfectly fine about three days ago.

i ran out of gas in my driveway (lucky me)

next day i went out to crank it, and it was running rough, like on 2 or 3cylinders.

today i did the following
-replaced all four spark plugs
-put 10gals of fuel in it.


started it up.
ran rough again, so i was like "WTF?"

saw a small fuel leak by injectors, so i pulled the rail off, and i replaced #3 injector since the o-ring was jacked up.

installed everything back, cranked up it, same thing....

NOW i finally got it to idle, pulled plug #1, and it got worse. put it back in. pulled plug #2, same result....so i know those two cylinders are firing good.

pulled #3 and #4 plug, and nothing....
plugged em back in no improvement...i also undid the injector clips for #3 and #4 and nothing..


so now im thinking low compression in those 2 cylinders? how is that possible with it driving perfectly fine even into my driveway??

i checked for CEL codes, and i am throwing TDC sensor code, IACV (seemed to work perfectly fine last week and before this messup) and im also throwing code 17 VSS. which i double checked connection to the cluster and the unit on the trans.

compression test will be done tomorrow
will get back.
any ideas?
