So what happened? Will share for others in future:
I have 1991 Taurus 3.0 for daughter, I'm fixing with same problem. Research showed class action lawsuit recall of Ignition Control Module due to thick film failure. Ford didn't issue recall with data they hid during first 7 years. Judge threw book at Ford for coverup. Trouble is today, the class action replacement and warranty has expired 2005 and replacement ICM is +250.00. See article.
