stall problem
#11
Considering the car runs worse after it warms up, makes me positive it's the dizzy. Here's a good read for you on the stator/Hall Efffects Sensor inside the distributor:http://www.wellsmfgcorp.com/pdf/Counterpoint3_1.pdf
Also, it might be a good time to clean your MAF as well.

I am now joining forces with you malo! Since I have a 94gt with the same EMBARRASING! issue, Nothing quite like waxing and detailing your stang up to have it die right after the dude at the emmissions place was commenting on how nice my car was etc,.
I am going to run my TFI sensor down to Advance this weekend. If thats not it I'm thinking its MSD time probly get a new coil and those red msd wires to pimp it out. Man I hope that fixes this ****.
Is this a 94/95 issue only cause I haven't seen any foxes commenting on the issue, if it is a 94/95 issue what makes our cars different from the foxes as far as dizzys and sensors? I didnt think that our engines were much different except for the intake and the elec fan.

Wow I just posted on this same issue and didn't see this,it is a crazy problem that I want to fix before it happens again. It wouldn't rev over 1 grand but then out of the blue it cleared out enough I could drive it into the parking lot.

Here is a test you can run to test your TFI and stator operation. Page 3 under TFI Tester, the last sentence or two.
"A better test is to check the fuel pump relay while cranking the starter. Not the 2 second prime after the key is turned on, but while cranking the engine. If the fuel pump kicks on when cranking, the TFI module and Stator are good."
I have not tried it yet, tomorrow I guess. Of course you have to run this test when you have a no-start situation.
It's worth a shot anyway.

Remanufactured ones from Autozone and Oreily's and Napa work well and won't break the bank. Yes, you can have problems with them. However, they usually carry lifetime warranties so you can take them back for a replacement(Out of four I've had, I've had one bad one). BTW, many new ones have complications as well.

You could have a bad TFI module, fuel pump or stator/Hall Effects sensor in the dizzy. You can have the TFI module tested for free at Autozone or any local parts store. Nice info Muhstang, especially for beginners just getting into the Mustang world.
