The biggest file was 66KB so it shouldnt be an issue.

If you need them sent somewhere else just let me know

Still nothing in the hotmail account-can you try nick@caferacerinc.com ?? I am heading back to my shop shortly and can get that email there.

Wish me luck!

Well I swapped all the relays and diodes with no luck. Also, under the hood there are two axillary boxes with two relays each that weren't in my owners manual. I swapped those around too with no luck.

It just seems like there isn't any fuel getting in the cylinders-are there any other relays that would affect this?

I feel like it is going to lie in the EF circuit, I just hope the IDM is not dead.

Yeah, in the trouble shooting guide it said that if code 1298 was present then the IDM is toast, but I am just getting the one code.

I have noticed that when I disconect the red/yellow tracer wire that I tapped in to that everything functions the same.

The last time I started it I still had the panels under the dash off-after I started it the last time I push all the wires up under the dash (I have a ton from my navigation system) and then it popped the #19 fuse and this other problem arose. I keep looking under there but nothing looks out of place or disturbed, and I was pretty careful when pushing all the wires up there.

This REALLY sucks that the dealer is closed tomorrow lol!

I will check that-if we think the IDM is messed up can I swap it from another truck? I have a friend with an '01 2wd F250.

The IDM is on the driver's side under the hood right? Is it right near the fuse box?

Can't see it from under the hood I don't think.
It needs to come out underneath the driver's side fender. Unbolt the plastic wheel well piece and pry it down, then you should be able to see the IDM.
