sorry if posted twice, not sure about the first time...
Am a novice mechanic but managed to do some repair, overhaul work on my 77 Bronco I have had since high school using original Ford shop manual. Already rebuilt brake system, replaced leaking front oil seal, time chain and gears, alternator and harness, regulator, starter solonoid, pulled aux and main tank and replaced sending units, old rubber fuel lines, repaired non-working fuel guage....my latest problem is ignition or fuel...need help. While in motion, usually about 45-50 mph, engine stalls like starving for fuel and quits, restarts almost immediately and does it again...seems to idle ok without stalling. Has happened several times over the years, replaced the ignition module when it happens and seems to solve the problem for a short while and does it again...does not matter if engine hot or cold...have already replaced most of ignition system ie.plugs, cables, module, ignition coil, new distributor rotor and cap, checked wires....keeps doing same thing...was looking at changing out fuel pump but now thinking maybe changing out distributor mag pickup (stator) ...or mabye both...anyone have any input or had same symptoms with their truck.... ignition system is Duraspark II with breakerless distributor....
