Default ignition problems please help

i have a 93 mustang lx built 306 with digital 6 plus ignition box msd coil and a probillet distributor it started stalling like the power was going off and then back on and the light on the ignition box cut off and on with the power loss searched for bad wire or ground traced it to the spout connector if i remove it the car runs but no power because of the timing advance im assuming jumped from the ecm to the spout connector and still the same thing so wiring is good
i assume read it could be the the tfi module or the pip so changed them both still the same can someone please help ive been on this problem for about five days and im ready to light it on fire
