I have a stalling issue with my '88 GT automatic. When cold, the car starts right up and idles perfectly.
Put the car in gear and down the road with no problems.

The issue is a hot start stall. After the car gets to temperature, the car will stall when retarted when put into gear.
The car will start and idle fine. as soon as I put it into gear, the car dies. I have found I need to rev it past 1200 RPMs,
quicly put it into gear, and tap the gas to get it going. Otherwise it will choke and stall.

I have changed the distrubutor cap and rotor, metered and adjusted the TPS to .95 volts, changed out hr TFI module, cleaned the EGR, Cleaned the throttle body, and replaced the coolant sensor. Any ideas?

so did you replace the distributor? and what is the eec?

cheetha94607

no i didnt replace the distributor.its a module that screws on to the distributor(where the connector plugs in) you can get it by itself..

the eec is the enginecomputer

the correct answer to this problem is the TFI moduel on the distributor.
