My Ford P/U died on the street. I had AAA tow it to the nearest repair shop.
I had a hunch that it was an electrical problem because of the way it died.
Pep Boys told me it was the black box under the distributor. Something to do with the spark control. The replaced it at a cost of $279.00. Charged me $60.00 just to analizethe problem.
Several days later the engine started to miss so I took it to a local mechanic who told me that it was just a dirty connectoron the wire leeding to the dist. Blk. Box.
He sprayed some cleaner stuff on the contact pins and receptical. This cleared the problem for free.
It appears thatI paid for work that was not needed.
