Yep, that's it. Maybe wait until dark, and let it idle for a bit. If you have a bad plug wire, it will be easily apparent.

There is a funny little rubber elbow from the throttle body, to the map sensor. Have a look at that feller, make sure it isn't plugging up, or cracked.

I checked for sparking and there was nothing and the elbow and tube were good, any other ideas?

The belt tensioner jumps around a fair bit, I took the tension away and the bearing felt good.

Check the rest of the pulleys as well. See if any of them feel kinda crunchy.

Can you read live data? If so, see what TPS has to say for itself.

Some codes will reset if the conditions that set them initially don't happen again for X number of key cycles.
