I thought there were only 2 types of emissions Federal (49 states) and California. I recently found out that Cali has split injectors and Fed do not. I also learned recently that a ECM (PCM) from a 98-02 7.3 is programmed for split injectors.
If I am wrong I am sure someone will corect me.

You are correct. Cali trucks have split shot injectors, others do not. All 99+ trucks came with split-shots as well.

I'm not sure if Canada had different emissions or not...

Well, if you are running with the MAP sensor unplugged at times then it must throw that code.

Check the part number on your MAP sensor and report back. Their are many that look alike and just plug in but are for gas vehicles and won't work properly with diesels.
