A friend of mine has a 97 F350 5spd CC DRW bone stock except for a straight exhaust that I'm looking to purchase for a VERY good price.
It started having an intermittent missing issue a few months ago and he has just let the truck sit since. Truck would fine for days or weeks on end, and then suddenly one day without warning the truck would start to cut out/miss and run like total crap.
After speaking to a couple of Ford savy friends initial suspect's are the CPS & IDM. CPS is cheap enough to replace just in case and see if it fixes the problem, the IDM however is not.
Valve covers have also been removed and the pass through harness for the injectors is intact and not melted.
Anywhere else one might check before hand? Going to try and get the valve covers back on in the next few days and see if it runs decent or not.
