Hey guys Chris again,
Its been a while since I posted on here because my car has actually been running really good! I got to drive it the whole summer with no issues. However a couple days ago ended that streak. My car started surging at idle and dying again and I noticed a huge loss of power. The exhaust very weird much more rasp than before I think its caused by detonation but I'm not sure. It started as an intermittent problem for the first two days but then became constant. I replaced my tfi thinking that was the problem with an very expensive motorcraft one and it didnt change anything I even borrowed a friends tfi that I know works well with no improvement. Disconnecting my msd box seems to make it slightly worse so I really have a feeling its ignition related maybe a pip sensor? I limped the thing 5 hours on the highway to my college and it never quit just runs like crap and I need it to get me to class next week so I'd really appreciate any input you guys might have. Thanks for your time.
