Re: tpi stumble

pull the ign control module out of the dist. and have it tested at autozone. if it fails, you found your prob.

Hey, This is slowmaro's dad. I changed ign module w/new new cap, rotor, wires and E3 plugs. Still have stumble/hesitation problem. I'm at the frustration level now. Any further help would be great! Thanks

Re: tpi stumble

Have you ohm checked your injectors I was having the same problems and 3 of my injectors were weak and 2 were totally bad.

I did all the same things cap, rotor, wires, ignition module, spark plugs and it still ran the same new injectors fixed it all.

Re: tpi stumble

Check your timing recently? Some more info on what's been done recently would help, and when/why this problem started in the first place. You can throw parts at it all day, might be something simple like a ground, I'd check all the bases first before buying anything else.
