I have a 1991 Thunderbird Supercoupe (less then 70k orig. miles). It was totally rebuilt. I know about tccoa, but there apparently s no one in this area. Long story short, I bought this SC (my second one) and had it for at least 4-5 years. the car had lower crank bearings in the bottom AND top (the oil couldn't get through the holes to the arm and pistons). I bought it this way (part of a piston was in the oil pan) You could still see the hone marks on the cylinder walls (bored +.030 over). We took the engine apart and rebuilt it from scratch (had the rods checked new pistons, rings, all bearings mounts, etc.). My dad and grandpa were VERY thorough to the point it annoyed me. Upon starting it, the car is missing VERY badly, at low RPM's. I replaced the IAC (new from ford - $120), I have 3 or 4 MAFS, Also 3 or 4 throttle bodies, along with TPS sensors. No Boost/Vac lak ... at least that I know, when it is idling, it is below the "ING-HNG" or whatever - (sorry I haven't started it in a LONG TIME - at least below -15/20lbs whatever is below "9 'oclock"). I am SO confused. Checked the fuel pressure at the rails, changed the fuel filter also.... I don't mind paying someone if they could help me out... I am just SO frustrated I don't know what to do...
ALSO: plugs/wires are new as well as O2 sensors...
