    '01 5.0: Spark only on cylinders 1 & 6

    I agree that it's like that the problem is elsewhere, I won't rule it out until I have definitive proof that it's not the problem. A coil can't charge up instantaneously - it will charge at an exponential rate over time (see http://www.tpub.com/neets/book9/0315.GIF) and there's only a finite...

    '01 5.0: Spark only on cylinders 1 & 6

    Yes, but this isn't stock wiring (it's in a '68 bronco), so there's the possibility that due to some other wiring issue, I'm not able to get enough current to the coils. If some of the current is being routed elsewhere instead of the coils, I'll still see the proper voltage at the coils but I...

    '01 5.0: Spark only on cylinders 1 & 6

    I don't have a noid light, but I may be able to find something that will work... If nothing else, I'll go out and get one to test. It'll certainly come in handy once I get to trying to test with fuel. I wasn't aware of that form of PATS (no fuel injectors), but if my PCM is the kind that...

    '01 5.0: Spark only on cylinders 1 & 6

    Yes, I have verified that those connections all go to the correct coils - they are what I was referring to as the "coil driver signals". Yes, I have checked PCM pins 24, 25, 51, 76, 77 and 103 and each has a resistance to ground of no more than 0.5 ohms. Yes. I have not tried this -...

    '01 5.0: Spark only on cylinders 1 & 6

    Sorry - I should have been more clear. I'm using a Ford EEC-V PCM, catch code EQE5. I should hope that it's setup to work with this engine, as it was designed to work with this engine!

    '01 5.0: Spark only on cylinders 1 & 6

    This is a bit of long story but here it is: I've swapped a 2001 Explorer 5.0 into a '68 Bronco. It's in and, to the best of my knowledge, wired up correctly. I'm using an EQE5 EEC-V PCM. After months of trying, I've not been able to get it to start. I'm getting good fuel pressure, which...
