Actually to feck something originally was to steal it. It is only a mild swear word and really has nothing to do with the other f word at all!!
This word was used more years ago and has come back into popularity due to its use in Father Ted.

It is not uncommon for school teachers and some members of the religious order to use the word 'feck' as an expletive in Ireland thus demonstrating the word's peculiarity in meaning to Ireland where it does not equate to the word '****' as many people outside Ireland tend to think.
So the answer is no

feck is a posh way of saying the proper F word, my aunties use it all the time but to me there is no point in changing the pronunciation in one letter to make it sound any better, a swear word is a swear word so we might as well use it right

Logically no. Based on the word feckless meaning "ineffective, incompetent, futile" to be feck means to be effective, competent and not futile." Obsolete of course.
