no high test!lol! straight black mud.i just took a peak at the wiring,and connections,what a jumbled mess!i also see alot of nuts missing off of brackets,since the ford dealership put the delete kit on,geez thanks!for 8,000 bucks, you would think they could remember to put the nuts and bolts back on.so that probable means if there is a chaffing going on, they never checked it.who knows, maybe i jiggled the right wire while i was crammed in the engine compartment this afternoon, i looked at as much of it as i could see, how about the cam sensor,what symptom would i have with that? anybody have a idea?my ex, suggested that one over the phone today.

After taking the intake apart, ford wrapped those wires real good. I found a number of places where there was pressure on a stud or bolt. I wrapped those area's with friction tape. Used a mirror to see the back side of these splices. None looked like they had rubbed through, but taped them up anyway. Reinsalled the ficm that ed rebuilt with the atlas 40 tune, with no heat/fiber tape on the ficm at all.
