Default Bucking problems....

I know this is not a Stang board, but yall probably can help out better that most.

Basically my car seems fine under light acceleration but stumbles at a certain point and is a dog when hammered. I have checked the plugs, changed the cap and rotor, fuel filter, ran injector cleaner. FP pressure reads ~39 with the vacuum on and off. And she surges sometimes. So there is a leak somewhere? This is driving me nuts, I have posted on like 6 different boards looking for answers... <img src="images/icons/frown.gif" border="0">

BTW - the car is a 91 5.0 with all mods minus power adder.

Got a timing light handy?? Check your timing....

Could be a screwy distributor maybe....


Have you tried www.corral.net ?


Good luck

Timing and TPS checked out, but found a nasty leak around the base of the lower intake.
