Ford VCM2 and IDS will tell you also. AE is more or less a failure when it comes to power
balance testing. AE won’t do the uncompensated test correctly and just fakes it.
there are other tools that will do the job for less.

FORSCAN and an OBDII adapter. You can do an injector "buzz" test on a COLD engine to hear if one is not audible. Then retest HOT and if you now hear all 8 click then you have a very good chance the injector that didn't click cold has stiction.
FORSCAN.org
