A couple injectors were no good. But luckily I have good combustion in the cylinders.
Tomorrow new FICM harness.
If that doesn't work, new FICM and then I'm done with this truck.

Reloaded with fresh oil and will try her out in the morning. Thanks for all the tips and interest in my predicament.
I'll let you guys know.

Well new injectors still had problems. Showed 4 cylinders done. Since it's a slim chance that the new injectors would have 4 bad ones I grabbed an ECU from the wrecker. Installed and truck fired up nicely. Still had a slight miss in #5. So I replaced the #5 injector and it is running good.
Also, through all this found that the cat was plugged. So that's comin off Monday night.
Who would have that a 150$ ECU would fix it!
Question, would the bad ecu have been causing the over fueling problems that led to blown headgaskets?
Does ford not have something that can check the ecu to see if it's good? If it's a computer it must be able to be scanned and checked for issues?

Tuning a new or different PCM will cost you an "unlock" on your SCT.

Oh ok. I thought maybe there was software that could just hook up and run diagnosis on the board.
What would cause an ecu to go bad? Edge module? Jump starting truck? Coolant from blown gaskets?
