Re: Slightly off-year help need- bronco shopping ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2000 14:22:50 -0600 From: "Justin Schick" <jschick Subject: ignition question Quick question. I searched the web forum but couldn't find the archives to this list. Anyone got the link? On the 1bbl 300 in my 85, I remember hearing the ignition fires on both strokes of the engine. For complete combustion or something to that effect. Is this true? Also, is this an EEC-IV or earlier computer?

I think it is chain saw oil or 2-cycle engine oil or motor oil..or who knows what. I also have a hard, plastic bed liner that only adds to the "slickness". I have tried regular auto wash, kitty litter (what a mess) and the degreaser at the local car wash, but it still is as slick as black ice on a North Texas interstate. Any help or ideas on how to get this cleaned up would be greatly appreciated. Happy New Years!

I use lacquer thinner to clean up all my oil spills, followed by a sweep up coating of kitty litter type stuff. Not sure how it would react to your plastic liner but it does not affect my plastic/rubber oil drain pan.

Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2000 17:36:21 -0600 Don't know about everyone else, but I'm not going anywhere on the rainy slick streets, with all the Drunks about. No I will probably even be asleep by midnight. But HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!!! And here's hoping for a GREAT '01!!!

I wouldn't say the 9" rears and axles in the 78 / 79 > are notoriously weak. Better the than the c-cliped 8.8. As far as design, yes the 9" is better than the 8.8. But there were some problems with the 78/79 Bronco and pickup axleshafts during production which made them weak and prone to breaking.
