Hey Guys,
So my 89 has developed a miss on #2 and #5 and I am completely 100% baffled. I've never had the balancer off, I just rebuilt the fuel rail, double checked the cam timing sensor, etc. The codes I get are legitimate, thing that aren't hooked up- EGR, canister purge, fuel pump- nothing with any relation to injectors or ignition. The entire drive line has less then 15K on it original, so I have hard time believing anything is burned out. I'm totally at a loss, any help is greatly appreciated.
The car is a 97 LX sport chassis with an 89 5spd with all the bolt on goodies (94 blower, C&L, BBK, 42# green top ford injectors, Magnum inlet, Ken W D/IC, etc.) but the heads have never been off, stock cam, ~~~.
I've done A LOT to marry the chassis to the drive line and suspension, but I had the car running last summer smooth as glass. It ran really fat, but smooth. As some of you know, engine management wiring is pretty self-contained. So I fed it power and grounds and it ran great. Now this...~~~?
Please help fellas, I confused

I should also note, I no longer have a shift light to reference and the car WILL NOT start with the cam sensor unplugged. So is it possible the crank sensor is not aligned right? That doesn't make sense, pretty small gap in the sensor. It cranks over and then makes the rump rump noise like way too much advance without the cam sensor in the loop.
