Help w/ 1985 Mustang ignition module

Aug 06, 2004 6 Replies

Does anybody know the best way to change out the ignition module?



As best as I can tell, there are two small hex-head screws holding the module to the distributor. But the hex-heads are recessed deeply into the plastic module body, and I can't get a socket into the recess.



Is there a special tool required? Any help?



Thanks a heap,

Yes there is, I bought mine at a local Auto Zone. It is a special tool made only to change the TFI, around 5 bucks.

Thanks for the info, and please excuse my ignorance:

What does "TFI" stand for?
