well if it's a 7.3 powerstroke. you could have a injector that came unplugged. or a bad injector. or there is a ground wire that comes off the back of the head on the passenger side. if the wire is loose it will sound like it has a miss. that wire goes from the back of the head to the fire wall. it's a flat one wrapped in black tape.
