1990 Ford Ranger Pick-up Stalling - Ignition System
Question: The problem I am having is after the truck is warm and sitting for awhile, like at a long red light, when accelerating, suddenly the truck will stall.The rpm gauge will go to zero, but as soon as I let off the gas, the gauge will jump back up to normal.Sometimes the truck will just quit running, it then will not start.But after sitting for a minute or two it will start up and run just fine.Any ideas on where I should start looking?

Technican: Start by having the computer trouble codes scanned.
You can do this yourself with minimal test equipment. Enter 'Ford Trouble Codes' into your favorite search engine, there are numerous sites that offer detailed instructions.
Owner: I don't know if you got my message about what I found about the trouble codes so I will tell you again.Codes 14 and 18 showed up.Pip circuit failure and SPOUT circuit open.What are these and what should I do to fix it?Could these circuits be causing the stalling or are they just a indication of something else wrong?
Technican: These circuits are very likely to cause stalling when hot.
Concentrate on the TFI module.
