You can probably borrow both for free. Autozone has that free loaner program.

Okay, so I got a noid light, injector is good. Swapped coils to with another cylinder, same problem code. New connector, same problem code. Compression seems to be okay (120). So signs point to my PCM. Do I just get a new one? What are my options?

You can use the Noid light to see if it's firing the coil. Sounds like the pcm has lost a coil driver.

I agree about the pcm. I tried moving coils around and it is still happening on cylinder #2. So can I fix the PCM or do I have to get another? Where would I if I needed another? Pick n Pull?

Nope. Parts store for a rebuilt unit. Then it needs to be programmed

Check the coil/pcm solid state with the noid as outlined earlier. Carcrazy mention it again. You seem to be ignoring what to do for some reason, I don't understand. That's how you check the PCM/Solid State switches/Drivers. You just did this with the injector, now do the coil. Is it that you don't understand something? It's best to ask vs....well, nothing good.

Compression, - can't really tell at this point, you only checked one cylinder. Yea you need comparisons ? I'd check at least the 4 in the front...good enough.

These are simple tests. A shop won't charge that much just to check it. If your having a hard time with it, might be worth taking it in.

What you need to do is find a wiring diagram for the ignition system. You need to ground outo the correct color wire an see if the coil fires using the Noid light. If it does you have a bad coil driver. The pcm only controls the grounding of the coils and injectors.

Update problem fixed. It was the computer. Swapped in a new one, had a locksmith come by and program the PATS keys and she's running again. Thanks for the help everyone.
