When buying use bikes to keep as your own you should always check it over well to make it yours, like tune up checking valves changing oil and filters then you know what you"ve got.

Yamaha 650 v star tps,.. how do i find it on a 2004...then how do I test it to see if its the problem??

I would still think this is a carb issue. Most techs stink at properly rebuilding carbs because there are so many different kinds.

I however have spent 15 years honing my carb skills to perfection.

If the bike was purchased from a person at a higher altitude, main jet size might be incorrect. Or if it has modifications to the exhaust or intake - also main jet.

Contaminated or old fuel could also be a factor - have you drained the tank?

The TPS has to be set and checked with an olm meter. The TPS controls the CDI second timing curve which may have failed. I have seen this many times!

I bought a 2004 yamaha v star custome 650 but the ignition coils were missing how do i put the new ones back in

From what I recall, they are accessed by removing the seat.

Take off the Pillion seat to reveal the nut for the driver's seat. Remove this and then you should have exposed the coils (amongst other things).
