    Basically, as the title suggests, I picked up an '86 Mercury Capri 5.0 recently. Rare car, 1 of 1,000-ish T-top cars, blah blah. I was so excited, I didn't even realize that the spark plug's were sideways like on the E7 heads, instead of straight on like the E6's. So... my questions are... 1)...

    Hi all, Occasionally, when I hit a bump just right, my stang dies out momentarily. If i hit enough bumps at once it even surges. They only way to stop it is to restart the car. It used to permanently die out with the bumps or after driving for a while, so i changed the tfi. No more long term...
