| This vehicle stalled while running due tofailed tfi module, this is the second such failure this vehicle has developed. it further undergoes a violent engine surge while at light throttle and low speeds engine and vehicle such as in town driving, this surge can be stopped momentarily by depressing either throttle or clutch pedal, and a equally violent single cycle shudder as if a kill swiths has been activated then released as slightly higher speeds and usually uphill. to date i have replaced the fuelfilter, removed the cruise control and replaced vacuum lines and caps, had ignition retimed, and installed new tps and pfe with no effect. the surge worsens with each cycle and if not stopped would definately cause drivline damage. the shudder recently knocked my dog off her feet. these both occur intermittantly and at random, usually with a warm engine after severa lmiles of driving. *ak | |||
