360 Spider Random Misfires

Hey, I have a 2004 360 Spider recently acquired. Previous owner removed cats and has non foulers on the rear O2 sensors. He also said he had just replaced the spark plugs.
It has a recurring CEL, originally random misfire, cylinder 2, and cylinder 7. I swapped coils from 7 to 6 and 2 to 3. Retest. Codes for random misfire, cylinder 2 and 3. I label the now #3 coil as faulty, inspect plugs, #2 plug broke on removal, I suspect over tightening. Replaced broken plug. Moved suspect faulty coil to #4.
Retest. Codes for random misfire, cylinder 3 and 8.
Today I got a scan tool that can read data from the vehicle, and discovered further codes:
Right Motronic
P1452 Secondary Air Pump Circuit
P1446 Catylitic Converter Protection
P0139 Rear O2 Slow Response
P0116 Water Temp. Plausibility
Left Motronic
P0300 Random Misfire
P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire

It does not go into closed loop. O2 sensors do not switch (all 4). It does not blow warm air from the vents. From what I've read on here, I should look into intake gaskets, does that make sense? Also wondering about the precat breakdown? I'm not sure but I'm guessing the large converter looking manifolds are pre cats? I have not done compression as misfire is moving. I suspect a faulty coolant temperature sensor, or faulty O2 sensors could also be a cause. Any tips or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

 

We dont do emissions testing where I am, however I do want to make sure the CEL will not return because of the missing cats. I suspect the non foulers are doing their job as it doesn't have cat efficiency codes, but does have a slow response O2 code I believe caused by the non foulers.
I smoke tested the intake this morning, no sign of an intake gasket leak. I ordered 4 coils for it. They will take some time to come in. It's quite likely that I'm dealing with more than one issue. Is 60C warm enough to enter closed loop on these? The Reservoir was very hot when data read 60C engine temp.
I would like to confirm I have the cylinder numbers correct. Passenger side of the vehicle, from the front to back are cylinders 1, 2, 3, and 4 correct?
Also, I cannot seem to find fuel trim/adaptive on the ECU data list. Is it called something different?

Thanks for the help!

 

I see, yes I adapted to the passenger side MAF. I'm not sure if the scan tool I got will be able to actuate the throttle, I will have to check and see. I imagine I will end up using propane or acetylene around the intake if not. That should still work yes? I debated that route anyways as the smoke uses very little pressure, whereas the intake is most often in a vacuum state. I dont see any real indication of running lean, and don't hear a vacuum leak, but have read here that it's a common misfire cause on the 360.

Where are the exhaust thermocouplers to be located? I see them in some straight pipe that is where the cats used to be, but it appears that there is a "fitting" of sorts on the pre cats that has nothing attached to it. Could this be a cause of any of the listed problems? I would imagine if they were relocated that the old location should have been plugged off.

 

I agree fuel trim is critical. I am using an Autel 919S Pro, it should be able to see any data pid available. However the only mention of adaptive I saw had a unit in degrees Celsius. I will take another look at it in a couple days though.

 

I appreciate the great explanation. I am a licensed automotive service technician, I am familiar with fuel trims, just not with Ferrari. I can't get it to go into closed loop, so trim data will certainly be limited if there is any. I dont see any response from O2 at all. Whether that is cause or effect though I am not sure. When you say right bank is 14 and left bank is 11, are those just example trim numbers you mean? Or is this how Ferrari labels them? Having 2 separate ECUs for the engine is also new to me. I work at a Chrysler dealership, Vipers are the only thing I've seen that on before.

 

I believe they are OEM? I've attached a picture of the port I'm talking about, maybe you can tell from that if they are OEM? As for their condition, that's an unknown to me.

That's what I thought. There is another port in the straight pipe that replaced the cats that has a sensor threaded into it. I assume those are the thermocouplers, but why the other ports are open, or why we would be measuring temperature so far away from the engine I do not know.

UODATE: I apologize for the long delay, it took some time to get parts, and then to find time to get back at the car. I opted to replace all 8 coil packs and coolant temperature sensor. I did block off the thermocoupler ports as well. Car has been running great for a little while now. I am however having a separate issue with the convertible top. I will post a new thread about it if I can't find the info through searching on here first. Thanks to everyone for the help with this!
