I bought this ford explorer from my former boss and he said it ran when he parked it, the only issue he said was his nephew took out the PCM to put in his truck (don't know what kind) and he said it was a two wheel drive. When I first looked at the truck and tried to get it running it had no spark and I had to change the crank sensor to get fire from the coil pack. All I checked at the time was the fuel going to the fuel rail so I thought it was fine as far as the injectors were concerned. Well my mechanic friend told me that the injectors were probably bad so we took it apart and check them (injectors) and he said that they needed to be changed. Well I bought all new injectors and even took the coil pack and crank sensor off of a running vehicle and installed everything and now I only get spark every now then and I still don't think the fuel is going past the fuel rail or injectors. What do you think I should do about my problem? Is there a way to see if the wiring harness that goes to the coil pack and the injectors are good? What do you think I should do? Also it has the 4.0 motor.

Where did you get the new PCM from? Are you sure it is the correct one? Have you checked the injectors to see if they are getting power? Usng a noid light, you should get a pulsating light when the injector is to fire.

All you can do with wiring is check for continunitiy.

Yes I cheched the pcm with the dealer and the two that I have are the right ones but I lost all spark in the system and I tried both pcm's. Before I changed the injectors I had spark what should I do? I changed the ICM this week as well as all the relays, (fuel, ingnition, and other) still no fire.
