if its spitting and spuddering while driving when you turn the stereo on or use other electric devices its because there isnt enough spark getting to the plugs. if the alt isnt generating enough electricity that is what will happen.

the alt is good, i had it looked at today and it looks like the wiring harness going to the coil is bad. has anyone ever rebuilt one of these what kinda connections would you recommend. they dont carry them at ford anymore so i think i am going to have to make one.
