it is hard to tell any thing right now

the FICM is gone and i am showing low current codes on all 8 injector coils and the P0611 code

Ted at innovative told me there is a back log of the FICM Hot (58 volts) to go out and people are slow returning them for core charge....

So if i take mine out i will have to wait 10 day turn around....

Your doing this backwards....you should either be running the T6 year round, Or T6 in the winter and ford oil in the summer.

Sometimes it just ahs no power. But when its warmed up it runs fine. Still have to take it into Ford this week for possible EGR cooler failure. NO leaks that I can find but the Degas bottle is now just below the MIN line. Inside EGR looks like wet tar. Matter of fact. guess since i got the day off and dont need to do anything Im gonna take it in now.
I believe your EGR cooler is shot, I'd just delete it

And as for it being sluggish in the morning until it's warm... Thats injector stiction from built up varnish in your injectors, i suggest trying some rev x to cure that but until your engine is up to operating temps you shouldn't beat on it too much
