timming problems
i have a 1990 f150 4x4 that i am having problems with spark nocking, no power, and in say 4th gear at say 50 miles an hour if you stand in it, it just starts to shutter and ping real loud. i have done everything i know how to do as far as timming goes. my question is is there something that could have gone wrong w/ the computer program or some sensor given the computer the wrong info or something. also could a computer diagnosis tell me anything as far as timming goes? any help or info will be helpfull thanks

understand no converter dual exaust oxygen sensor is still pluged in but nothing else.
it ran fine until i moved the distributer around. if the computer is reading crank position and not actuall timming could i have done something to confuse the comp. or something? could i uplug the battery and reset the comp.? or is this way of base?

is there any way to read the codes without a tool that is made for reading codes, like a volt meter or something? i have noticed that there is a plug under the hood that you can get code readings from is this where i need to check them at or inside the cab? i have disconnected the spout connector and set the timming, but the first time i tried to adjust the timming i did not know about the connector and that was why i was thinking that might have confused the comp. some how.
