Someone asked how many miles on the vehicle, it has just over 33,000 original miles.
Used it almost every weekend after acquired and visited my folks in FL several times. Has not been used much over the past decade but exercised regularly over other week.

To add I just put in a new Motorcraft MAP, started it up and it fouled all the plugs again running very rough (does respond immediately to throttle however) and dies. Lotta work to get all the plugs out as left bank is not reachable from inside, too tight in there must done from inside wheel well.
THE SMOKE IS BLUISH WITH A BLACK RESIDUE IN THE EXHAUST PIPES, SMELLS LIKE GAS AND OIL..I’m now beginning to query valve seals or even a head gasket, sure hope I’m wrong and only have an over fuel issue.
Getting a fuel pressure gauge tomorrow and will also be rebuilding my spare IKE version EEC with new capacitors. Done this before many times on all sorts of pro gear, the coach ran flawlessly when I redid the originall EEC a few months ago.
Right now I’m stumped, ran codes again today after my failed Map attempt and got a total of 12 codes in my Ford OBD 1 reader. Allot of very confusing dinosaur computer information
