"when it happens my Tach jumps everywhere"

Test the TPS w/ an ohmmeter; may have a dead spot or wiring is defective. Sustitute another coil. EFI TB injectors worn out or dirty. Spark control module failing.

Drain the fuel filter and fill it w/SeaFoam and run the engine 15 mins. to clean injectors.

Still falls on its face; replace spark control module.

Thx again.
Brad"
