Cam sensor?
So I had my mechanic friend come by and hook up his computer.
It turns out that when my #3 injector died the computer was compensating for it.
So fuel pressure is good, but the computer was still compensating like #3 was out still.
#3 injector was out of sync with the rest of the injectors.
So he synced it and reset the cam sensor. It cleaned right up and ran great.
Now that I have started it a few times it feels like it is rough again.
Could my cam sensor be going bad? it didn't throw a code yet.
My crank sensor has a leak could it be going bad to cause this too?

Sorry somebody is blowing smoke or is unfamiliar with the 6.0.
You can't sync a single injector or reset the cam sensor.
He probably meant cleared the codes. It would run good until it ran long enough to reset the hard codes. Maybe he was hopeing it was just a glitch and would stay cleared and work. Unless it is leaking thru the crank sensor it is probably just the o-ring on the sensor.
