one night i was at a stop sign and i hit the gas to go and nothing happened, then i slowly started to accelerate. then later that night i went to another stop sign and i hit the gas to go and it stalled out. Now i can start my car and it will idle fine in Park and Nuetral, but as soon as i put it in any gear(1,2,D,OD,R) it stalls out, but if i have the car jacked up would go into gear but would want to shut off when the tires stop spinning i thought it have something to do with my torque convertor, but im not sure. do you guys have any ideas. im starting to get aggrivated at this thing.

does the idle surge at all when in neutral? Check TPS voltage also. It's the Black thing on top of the throttle body with the green, black, and orange wires. the voltage between the green and black wires should be about .98v.

I don't know a whole lot about the automatics in the foxes, but it sounds like a safety switch is killing it. Does it have an AOD or and AODE.

i've never had an auto so im just throwing out ideas.... pull the codes and see what you get. here's a how-to on code pulling and what the codes mean. it also shows how to make your own code puller. you'll want "2 digit codes" at the top of the page to see what the numbers mean. http://www.muscularmustangs.com/test1.html
