Hi Everyone,
I'm in a bit of trouble. I'm in Texas a long way from home! Car was running great then started quitting and then would refire. I could drive for a bit and it would do it again. It got worse and worse. Then I had to sit for a bit and then it would start again and run for a bit. I made it to a town. I found a Autozone and ordered a ignition module and a coil. I guess it could be the distributor? I got lucky and a guy cranked it for me will it wasn't running. No spark off the coil wire. Whats the most common failure on these cars? I have had other fords with module failures that acted like this. The parts should be here in the AM. The car just turned 81,000 miles so I really hope its not the distributor. What do you guys think? Oh, I have very limited tools. No testing equipment. I just want to get home!
