Codes 51 and 98 please help

My 87 F 150 has a rough idle and continues to stall. Upon initial startup the truck runs for about three seconds and then the idle becomes irradic and the check engine light comes on. After the truck has been warmed up (10-15 mins.) the idle becomes more consistent although rather low around 500 rpm, sounding like a stall is possible. I was getting a code 51 and 31 in the koeo. I found a smashed ect sensor and replaced it now getting a code 51 and 98 koer code after reset any help would be greatly appreciated
