It sounds like they are doing just fine.  I think in the end you will find it was a minor failure that created a major symptom.  Keep us posted.

Update: Pinto is still in the shop.  Am told the master mechanic is still trouble shooting.
When he drives it, it stalls and hesitates for him, so at least he is experiencing what we've been telling him; a vacuum hose was replaced, but that didn't solve the problem.

Tomorrow will be a week that they've had it.

I would still have him check fuel pressure when he is driving and it starts hesitating and stalling.  It sounds like what my EXP did before I installed the electric fuel pump.
