Thanks for getting back with the update, I have been researching the issue non stop. A few things I noticed on your readings.
1) before throwing the 2177 2179 I was receiving the fuel tank venalation code, which mysteriously went away.
2) CCV valve malfunction/ replaced breather valve and hoses/ valve cover gaskets and manifold gaskets
3) replaced O2 sensor/ rough idle/ ran smoother after O2 sensor was replaced

4) I am not having the hard start issue, just a shudder at a times when accelerating and bogs down when accelerating until I give it more gas. Also bad fuel consumption
5 not sure what HFM is..

Not sure if any of information helps.

I will post anything I may find, I maybhavento take it back to the Indy to see if it has anything to do with what was repaired.

FIXED
Finally fixed. Took me awhile mostly due to me not committing to the issue as much as I should have. Anyway... The culprit was the newly replaced Hengst fuel filter. I am assuming this filter had a faulty fuel pressure regulator in it. I swapped it with a Mahle filter and the problem completely went away. What a relief. Car is running and starting great.

Hope this helps for anyone else who may have this problem.

This is why in my posts I warn people about buying cheap part to fix their X. Fix it right or do it twice.

Very true! The good thing is I can now swap a filter pretty proficiently. The first time had me scratching my head. The how to write up on this site was extremely helpful. Especially with the fuel line hose clamps.
