200 10V stumbles, poor mileage

Ok,  I checked rpm, crank position sensors with scope and they look 
fine, no aberrations.   Signal on terminal 1 of the ignition coil look 
ok to me, meaning that ECU ignition function is ok.    Ground to ECU is 
good.  Air, engine temp sensors are passed resistance check.  Oxygen 
sensor is heated, ECU receives it signal (looks like in range 0.1-0.8 
V).  What is left to blame are rotor, cap, coil, wires and plugs.  One 
thing surprised me:  why cold start valve is powered all the time?  Is 
it supposed to?


Thank you.
Konstantine.
