Chris, that's a nice offer...besides, I was in staten island. Too far to have anyone come. Thanks though. Got the car flatbedded to Ford, it was supposed to be there monday for a 4th gear syncro so they'll just look at that while it's there. Looks more like a fuel pump to me. When I was driving.....the car was, I said surging but I meant another word. The engone was jerking, kinda like if you downshift at a high RPM without rev matching....then It started not accelerating at all, though idling fine, then I was takign off from a light and wasn't going anywhere, so I pulled over....it was idling then I looked down and the car had stalled. Can't start it from there. It was idling really rough for a few tries, but, she just stopped starting on me. Sounds like it wants to turn over but never does. Evreythings conencted right..my sparkplug wires are without a wire loom but none are corroded or burnt....I wish it would have happened on my block soI could change the pump myself. Oh well.
