Ok, I have an '87 Stang GT 5.0, AOD. I just had to put a new distrib in it today so I am about to set the timing. I have a question before I go about doing this though. My book says :
Disconnect the single wire inline SPOUT connector which connects the control computer to the ignition module. This will prevent the electronic ignition from advancing the timing during the setting procedure.
Where in the heck is that?? Another thing... why does my book refer to the module on the distrib as both a TFI module and a ICM?? Aren't they two different things?
I have a Chilton repair manual I am looking at. I stopped at my local Ford dealership and they said the TFI is the same thing as the ICM.
