hey i recently got a code 41 for pip circuit failure the car was starting then shutting down so i replaced dist with new used one that was in car prior to rebuild.
and the car still cuts off after start up and is frustrating the fuel pressure is 40 at idle and the car takes a while to start it just cranks then finally cranks and starts and runs but stalls any thoughts the vam is new fuel pump and regulator,tps thanks

So your saying the car fires up then stalls out. Does it start and run at all. The new distibutor you replaced, your original quote is new used one.??? Did you get it from a parts car or swap it at a parts store. Is your TFI a motorcraft one??

Check the connector to the TFI for dirty, coroded, pushed out pins. Wiggle it and see if you can get the car to stall. Also wiggle the TFI harness back to the firewall.
BTW, I assume you mean you got a code 14, not 41.
