HI all-

Just wanted to update you, Car is back from the shop. It was the computer itself. They couldnt even pull codes from it. I am hoping someone else having similiar problems can read this and cut to the chase, so to speak. For good measure mechanic adjusted timing too.

The computer itself is a FORD only part, so with labor it was a spendy fix. I guess we had hoped that it would have been something simple that we could fix to save $$$. Overall we did replace about $100 worth of parts and spent money twice on towing, once to bring her home for us, and once to the shop when we gave up. So, My advice to others would be, if you have checked the inexpensive parts, don't waste any more time or money, get it to someone who can pull those codes, its worth it.

Thanks again to all of you for your help! I hope now we can fix her up to look as pretty as she sounds
