1988 Dodge 3.9 V6 Pick-up PROBLEMS!

Someone mentioned in my other thread "theres a barrel with about ten wires on it .open it and check the pins"

Can someone tell me exactly where I'll find this barrel looking thing, because I am not having no luck at finding it =(

This was the original post:

When you start sometimes it stalls.
And when you pull the battery cable for 5 to 10 minutes it starts running again when you put it back on.
When you're driving and stop it sometimes stalls.
Computer shows up 14 map sensor electrical circuit
But I put a new map sensor on and still does the same thing.

This might sound funny but I had a stalling problem and it was related to the battery not running at the required voltage level to keep the computer powered up. I replaced the battery and the stalling problem went away. Maybe this will help, maybe not but you can check.
