P/N Engine Wiring Harness

I need the part number for the engine wiring harness. I am fed up with trying to get good connections with the stupid pigtail harnesses that i got raped on.

cowmilker, I said the same thing when he posted a few months ago.
I believe English is not his primary language.
Translation:
"Me too. Mines screwed to the injector wiring. Don't use Dorman brand."

Well injection is what's screwed up on mine also. Both plugs were melted on the passenger side. So I bought the pigtails from ford. But i was also changing the glowplugs at the same time. when i took the VC off i saw that the VC gasket and the UVCH were melted as well. Well between needing to buy school books and many other bills at that time, couldn't afford the VC gasket and the two UVCH from ford. so i bought the generic crap. I used butt connectors to splice in the new ford pigtails and everything seemed to be great... for about two days. Then the truck started missing again just like before. Upon inspection i found that the wires were pulling out of the butt connectors. So i got the 'bullet and recticle' connectors and switched to them. Everything was great for another three or four days. Once again, the truck started missing again. So i soldered the wire that came out. It worked again for two to three days, but started missing again. So yesterday i took the entire engine wiring harness off the truck, brought it in the house and strength tested each connection (i pulled on the wires as hard as i could). Any that came apart i soldered together. I was pretty f-ing confident that i had solved the problem, but when i started up the engine it was still missing. I was ready to throw a hammer through the windshield and light the mother on fire.

So anyway, now it hits on all 8 sometimes, but usually it misses on at least one if not two. There seems to be no pattern to it what so ever and I am at my wits end. I don't think the problem is caused from me not using all ford parts. Two things are certain though: 1) I'm am very, very tired of having a miss or two, and 2) I remember why I am not going to school to be an electrical engineer.
