Default misfire after doin compression test

i ran a comprssion test and had around 170 psi on all cylinders and my teacher sprayed carb cleaner on the plugs and down the spark plug wells to clean off all the oil i spilled in there and after i put it all back together ive had a misfire at idle and whenever i step on the gas. but at about a little under quarter throttle it fires on all cylinders. i replaced my spark plugs and disconnected the battery to reset the computer and same problem. could i have fried the coil pack by rolling the engine over without any of the wires connected to the plugs? the wires were just layin on the cowl pluged into the coil pack.

i went up to autozone and they said the tps was bad and it would cause it to run rough but it runs fine at a certain throttle and its hard to start and backfires alot so maybe that is the problem but apparently its not misfiring its just running rough so i ges that'll fix it but i dont see how what do yall think but its 77 dollars
