Question Tack keeps falling

for some reason my tac keeps falling. like the car will be running and if i run her down the road the tac will fall to 0 and wont move but the car will still run. WTF is going on with it. is it a coil or do i have a bad conection somewhere. but if i turn the car off and turn it back on it workes fine for a bit. i think i have a plug that is fowled or something. help me out. thanks

Did you remove the coil lately not and bolt it back down? Mine did that when the trailing coil was loose (I was working on the car, and had been moving it around)

There was another thread where we covered this topic recently. It's usually a bad main engine ground - adding a ground strap from the engine to the frame will probably do it, or clean up/reseat the main engine ground on the top driver's side tranny to engine bolt.
