Default Random Misfire keeps coming back

I have a 97 Grand Cherokee with about 120K miles.

CEL came on about 2 weeks ago for a Random Misfire (43). Mech cleaned fuel injectors and cleared code. About 4 days later CEL came back on for Random Misfire and Misfire Cyl 5, Mech changed injector in Cyl 5 and cleared code. Yesterday CEL back on with Random Misfire (43 again). Always happens at highway speeds.

Mech says plugs and wires look good, recently replaced Crank Position Sensor and harness.

I am getting very frustrated with this.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Got a new code along with the misfire code.

New code is 42, ASD module I think.

Can the two be related? Any ideas?

Thanks!
