    So if that is what they pulled does it mean I need a new tfi? If not how can I fix it?

          Probably means you need to fire your mechanic and go to someone who doesn't randomly unplug important things to "fix" problems. Plug it back in, let us know what exactly it does.

            ok will do tomorro... but what I believe what happens is that it stalls out constantly when it plugged

              then you have some other problem. Find out what exactly it does, and we can point you in the right direction to fix it.

              Didn't you find black plugs in some other thread, and it was determined you had a bad fuel injector or something?

                Well here is the orignal thread explaining my problem http://www.grandmarq.net/vb/showthre...t=23804&page=2, It still should happen if I reconnect the spout, So I assume it should be the tfi module. I kinda happy that you guys help me find out this because my quarter mile time should be faster cause I ran her after they pulled the spout.
