Got down to where it was located, turns out it was a 1989 model, with a 300 six in it. He dropped my battery from my truck in it, I fired it up and it ran perfect all the way back. I am wondering, if the ECM had to relearn the settings it had before the battery was removed. All he did was drive it from where he bought it, and just parked it. I had no stalling problems, I let it idle in drive about 10 min in front of my apartment when I got back, it idled smooth with no sign of stalling . I'm gonna check the filters, replace as needed.

I haven't checked myself but did they use the big 6 with an E4OD?? Nothing wrong with my 5.8 but I think I'd be happier with the 6.
