Changed a couple COP's today

Changed a couple COP's today, and after i put them in the same code was showing up on the reader? It does 3 things that i need some help figureing out. First it says i have a miss on #7 this code it blinks the freeze frame on, then it says i have a miss on #2, and it also says that the O2 sensor and the O2sensor heater monitor have not completed the tests? Now every time i have hooked up the puter it tells me this code? Do i have a problem with the O2 sensor? no SES light is showing up? I also got playing with a little white paint today while under the hood, still need to clean it up a bit.

I'm checking the Ford service manual now.... give me a few minutes. I'll see if it says anything.

OK Finally found the section on codes and diagnostics in the PCED manual. What are the specific codes that you are getting from your scanner?

The first thing it says to do is pretty simple.

'CHECK for loose connections, damaged or corroded pins. WIGGLE harness '

Also, check for bent pin in the connector.

I like the paint

I did the same thing on my X, except I made the V10 silver and the TRITON red. Yours looks good. I think a paint mod like that will give you <i>at least</i> 10 extra horsepower, kinda like painting your brake calipers red.

Can't help with the codes, but it looks like Housedad has you covered on that front

Good luck though!

Did you 'CLEAR' the codes after you replaced the COPs? You may have been reading the stored codes.

Yes i did clear the codes and in fact i had to clear them like 3 times in a row to wipe them out completely. Then i drove it home and read the codes again to find the same codes. Now today i rechecked stuff, changed out the coil with another one of the take-offs and, used a mirror to check #2 wigles the injector plugs and tried it out agin. this time i could hear a difference. I knew i had all 10 running for the first time since i have owned this truck. WOW it's like a whole new truck again. Now i am seeing what everybody is talking about nice quiet smooth engine. It runs much better as a V10 then a V9. Reset the computer and watching the milage slowly climb upwards above where a V9 runs.
