Recently I've had some problems with my car but I've had a spare ride to go to work in. Now that ride is gone, my Mother who was letting me borrow it, is going back to Minnesota so i have to fix it now!

Recently i had the tps go bad, Ignition control module, pickup in dizzy, and a few other things.

I replaced the tps, ICM, and whole dizzy, along with a few other components, finally got it running, but i can't get it to run right. It has a miss, and the timing is way off. I'm looking for someone who can come to me obviously, and diagnose exactly what's up/fix it. I'm assuming it just needs iac adjustment, base idle, and timing, but if it needs other things i have cash to fix it. I can pay for gas along with $100 bucks depending on what work needs done. If anyone can help me out let me know! 657 549 7553.

The car is a 1984 Ford Mustang SVO. 2.3 litre turbo.

If i need to take it to a shop i will, because I'm sure any shop is capable of the job, but i thought I would jump on here first and see if anyone is willing and able! I live in Compton by the way. Off the 91 and Avalon. But the car is in Bellflower right now right off the 105 and Garfield.

Have you cleaned out the IAC yet?

New iac. Just not capable of timing the car and setting everything to run good. I troubleshot as far as my mechanical skills go and got it running but as for fine tuning I've always had help and since it has to be done within the next week, i kinda have no choice but to pay someone who knows better than me to fix it.

Nevermind, Got a mechanic coming to the house to set base idle, tps, and timing as well as troubleshoot any other problems for 50 bucks and gas. Thanks all
