**update**

So, I've been impatiently waiting for my ipr screen to come in through O'Reilly auto parts. Ordered Sunday and they said would be here Tuesday night. Show up Tuesday and its not here. Manager apologize sand said he'd make sure to take care of me and call me personally when it came in. So Wednesday morning rolls around and he calls me about 7am when I'm rolling to work that it's there. I show up at 630 that night and they just ask for a signature, they donated the part to me for my troubles, and I think the fact that I showed up in uniform, and the manager is prior navy, didn't hurt. So I was absolutely ecstatic about that . but the screenbody was cracked upon inspection before I installed it, my mistake for not inspecting closer before leaving the store. But the story gets better. I inform them of the issue and decide they'll let the manager resolve it in the morning! So long story short, they're getting the part from the local Ford dealership and swapping it out for me. As far as I know its not going to cost me anything, but I wouldn't be upset if they chargedme the difference. I have to say, that is one hell of a set of guys working there, providing excellent customer service .

Got my new screen from Ford, that was a fiasco in itself. Got the screen installed just now. Once it's above 25* I'll install the ipr. Crossing my fingers.

Well she started after a few cranks but man is it running like crap! So that brings a couple questions. Is it possible that it took out an injector or two with the hpop? I thought if it lost oil pressure it wouldn't hurt an injector, but would kill it If it lost fuel pressure.

Second, I know the icp I installed is for a later model because it shows 50 psi on hpo before I crank. I've read all over the place that it shouldn't matter. But I've also read that it can make the early models run like complete garbage. Any ideas? Or should I start a new thread, this one's getting massive!

Alright guys I have great news. So finally I'll stop bugging y'all. Ficm connector in the center was loose. Apparently the snaps are broken. Another thing on the to do list. Also, I noticed low power and a few black puffs of smoke from the engine bay. Egr cooler to intake mating was a hair loose. Tightened that back up and she's purring like a kitten again.

I have to say thanks a million to everyone who contributed anything big or small to my issues. You guys are amazing, Thanks for all the help.
