Hey Guys I have a 92 5ltr vp and one day I was driving it pretty rough and than all of a sudden it started to backfire and pop as we drove it so when I start it up now it starts misfiring and it starts popping and banging checked leads and plugs they all spark, swapped injectors over and the same cylinders still don't fire also checked pushrods and rockers seem fine, ran out of ideas on what it could be haven't checked any sensors (o2 sensors, map sensors, maf) could that be it any help would be greatly appreciated
thank you,

try doing an error code check. 9/10 times with the 5L's its ignition module related, technology in those things is like 25 years old. theres mobs that reco them with new guts, new technology. communicating your problem through a computer screen can only go so far though. it could be a bunch of things.

I'll go down and get it engine codes read tommorrow and have them check the fuel pressure too! I'm hoping its just a split vacuum line or something along those lines
