It should be fully controlled by the PCM, but it does take vacuum/load into account through the sensors. This is a full Explorer setup with coil packs then? If so it can handle quite a bit of a vacuum leak before it messes things up, but a really big leak might give it some fits.
However, backfiring and stumbling and whatever it's doing is not just minor.
Is this still a roller cammed later block or did you put Explorer stuff on an older block? If a flat-tappet cam, did it get broken in properly for the first half hour?
Since it's not a a distributor setup with a TFI module, there's no issue with power going to the one wire keeping timing retarded, but that used to be a common issue with swaps.
What cam is being used? Stock Explorer, or aftermarket replacement?
What injectors?
Did you ever connect your CAN-P vacuum line?
