I just put a new motor in my 2011 f250. The old one dropped 4 valves lol. We put a 2016 motor in it and I have to reprogram all the iqa numbers through forscan. There is supposed to be a sticker on the ccv but it’s not there. I got all cylinders injector codes by crawling around the engine bay and reading off the injector. Only problem is I just can not get number 8 as it’s tucked back there. Just wondering if there’s anything I could to get it with out taking the engine apart

The IQA number is on the black plastic ring on top of the injector below the fuel line fitting. #8 is easy to get to - use your cell phone to take a picture. Little tip: whether I am replacing a fuel system or swapping over injectors to a new engine I always mark and photograph each one after installation for verification and programming. Generally, I do not trust the numbers on the CCV... if they are there. By the way, that is not YOUR injector number in the picture.

Thank you very much I got the code by buying an inspection scope. That was small enough to get back there

One question though I have is it normal for the iqa number to be all number and no letters. All of the other injectors had at least one letter except number 8 just wondering if that’s normal. I ask because the code seems scratch off of the injector
