the 2001 4.7l engine does not have a distributor cap. it has individual coil packs for each plug. check if fuel is going into the cylinders.

well it sounds to me like your gauge cluster is probably loose, or you have a loose connection the the PCM (the no buss message) and/or a bad cps, the worst case could be a bad PCM but dont jump to that conclusion
