ok guys here goes my i have a 1987 f-150 302 auto w/od yesterday i started it up and it missed really bad flooded i have already changed the idle air control valve and i noticed that when i turn the wheels the truck ran good as long as there is pressure on the power steering so i unhooked the power steering press. sensor and it runs ok but still not perfect i also unhooked the map sensor and it ran fine however today i went to start it and it flooded again now i have the egr unhooked too i tried to get the codes my check engine light works but when i hooked the jumper from the pigtail the house shaped connecter and turned the key on the check engine light just came on no flashing any ideas

'87 doesn't have a check engine light. Use a voltmeter.

my truck has a check engine light on the left side of the steering collumn in the lower part of the dash it comes on every time you turn the key on

I have never seen an '87 with a check engine light. There is a spot for one but the factory didn't use it. I wired mine in. But anyways, use a voltmeter.

My 87' 302 doesn't. Try this method to see if you get codes this way.
(Can substitute meter for test light)

The last guy I argued about this with discovered his was an '88. Not argueing or calling you a liar though.

That's the "engine" light, not the "check engine" light. That doesn't flash codes. For the third time, use a voltmeter.

Told you so.
