Default Spark Advance trouble? 5.4L

I'm having trouble with my 2009 5.4L phasers are locked with 5-star VCT tune.

I have intermittent rough idle so I was looking at it today and I found that with each rough idle the spark advance goes from 15-16 (smooth idle) to jumping between 2-28 degrees (noticeable rough idle). This happens every 10 seconds or so. I'm also getting an error reading fuel bank 2 and I'm not sure if that's related.
