ok.... seriously ppl, messaging others on here is funny, and it does have spark i pulled the wire from both ends with spark from both ends, i pulled the plug with spark there also, and i changed the head for this same reason, now i got the head off a 87 4runner which the mtor is sittin in right now, and the head from the 87 is in alot better shape and its straight as an arrow no warpage, as for the injectors, they are new so it should be getting gas there, and ive adjusted the timing like 500 times with no prevaigl

check grounds.
in particular, that grounds are where they should be and that wires aren't grounding where they shouldn't be.

codes 4,5,6,7 & 12 are all related to sensors and wires that run through the harness at the manifold. I'd be concentrating my efforts in that area checking for pinched, burned or otherwise damaged wires and checking for continuity between the sensors affecting the codes and the ecu.

ok.... that took longer than expected, but i went over the entire thing three times and had someone else do the same thing. everything is hooked up and in the right spot, no wires are screwed up or anything of the sort. im still stumped at this whole thing.. one of my buddies gave me the idea of converting the motor from fuel injection to carburetor, if i did this how hard would it be to do this??

hate to be beating a dead horse, but did you just look at the wires and move them around or did you take a continuity tester and test the wires for continuity to ground (for ground wires should be continuous and others not) and for continuity from the sensor to the ecu plug?
if the wires are in good condition and you're still getting the error codes, that's when to start considering the ecu. just be sure to check the wires out very, very good because you don't want to change ecu's and find that whatever took out your old one takes out the new one too. If you know anyone with a truck like yours, you may be able to swap your ecu into their truck and see how it goes.
