Ok folks....I purchased a 1993 GT automatic (http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/new-to-me-fox.853252/#post-8582860) Ad said it had an 'idle issue' guy told me he had replaced mass airflow sensor, idle air contorller, throttle position sensor, coolant temperature sensor, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, O2 sensors, EGR, fuel pump and computer. Car would start and run when I first brought it home. It was idling very high though (close to 1500) drove it around the block, acted like it was gonna overheat (it didnt) had no power then died. Fired right back up but wouldn't stay running. Every time I started it, the car would backfire into the intake and die. Now I've checked timing, spark plug gap, wire order (all good) Car has cold air intake on it (no leaks) and didn't have a filter on it when I got it.
I was gonna do some electronic testing but I got to thinking that maybe it was the PIP sensor/stator and or the TFI module. So, naturally without testing crap I bought a new one. Stabbed the new dizzy and hooked up the new TFI. Started car to adjust timing and car backfired into intake then died. Went to try and start it this afternoon and battery is DEAD. There was nothing left on as the car has been sitting. I need any and all help I can get. KOEO and KOER tests are out of the question due to no juice. (did the TFI run down the battery?)
Sorry if this is choppy but I'm beyond frustrated between the car and reading the surging idle thread and others. HELP!?!?!?!?
