Bob, Welcome to the site. As JL said it will be OBII compliant. You could just run the motor home by most any parts store and they will be happy to bring a hand held reader out and check for any codes for you...FREE. What a deal.
Curious, what kind of motorhome is it that you have built on a F-550 truck?

The DLC connector is just to the left of the steering column. the plug is hard to see because it is turned sideways .
When changing your plugs did you replace the boots and use oem plugs ?
Also you may have a cop going bad.

Welcome to FTE, Bob!! 
I'll go with FortyFords on the coil(s) being bad. You will not get a code most of the time and it saves time to go to your dealer and let them run a diagnostic on the engine. Those boots from the factory are made of sorry rubber that hardens and flakes, causing "spark leak" which is actually going to ground.

Hi Out there. I found my connector under the steering wheel cover on the right side it was put on the brace for the steering wheel. Could hardly get to it to move it. I got my scanner and checked it out shows no codes. So I wheel try the plug boots when it warms up her in Nebraska. Thank for
