PMD is what runs the injector pump black or some time grey box on side the IP witch goes bad lot cause heat most of more it to the front bumper on a heat sink

Other thing you want to check that play big part to the 6.5 are grounds there are 2 or 3 wires at the back right side on motor and there is also 2 ground straps there from the fire wall right under the a/c dryer 1 goes to back of right head the other goes to the frame those are the grounds for the computer then there ground wire on top of the injector pump and one at right fender next to the battery make sure the clean and tight
