did a fuel pressure test to try and figure out why the 95 bronco is running rough/ misfiring. Sure enough no fuel pressure when key on engine off and a little low while on.


I am pretty sure the check valve is broken but dad thinks the fuel lines are clogged. Time to figure out which one it is.


On the 91 bronco we reconnected the fuel line from the damage that someone did.

Got it smogged. Passed perfect!

 

Parked it in it's portable garage and closed the flap door.

 

put new door pins in the drivers door of the 95 bronco and got some for the passenger side. Now the door close correctly.


My 83 bronco I picked up a new used grille in better shape for me to make my custom grille. Also a right side turn signal housing since mine was broken. Now I have everything for the grille assembly stuff just need to get it painted to put everything back on. Got the grille and turn signal housing for $5 for both.

Was out by Omaha / Elkhorn and stopped to take a picture on the historic Lincoln Hiway.



This is after installing the new front springs so that I could get my 33's installed without them rubbing.



And I got the windows tinted a while back. You might be able to see the tint on the upper windshield.

 

Replaced the water pump for the fourth time in a week. I will fill it with fluid tomorrow. I hope it doesn't leak!

 

Talked about it... I'll be moving it a little soon, we are probably going to bring home a travel trailer and the car tent that the bronco is parked in is in the way. I'm not entirely sure if it will stay in the car tent or end up in the garage.

 

Still chasing a stupid off idle miss/hesitation. It's getting better the more I drive it (it seems).
Changed the stock coil with an Accel Super Coil. Going to change either the pickup in the distributor or change the distributor. Anybody know if a 1993 5.8 has a steel or cast iron distributor gear????
I guess I'm going to have to change my evaporator. A/C not blowing very hard through the vents. Checked the mode door and it's working. A/C pressure is going a bit high on the high side.....and with it not blowing very hard .......evaporator.
I gotta look on LMC or BG to see if the new foam is available for the mode doors. Getting a bit blowing through the defrost vents when on A/C max high.
New transmission is still doing good!
All in all......been driving good though!!

 

Yesterday I installed a factory kick panel vent in place of the block of plate. Even got my son to help by holding the screws.


I'm hoping to work on some dash wiring this week...

 

Got my water pump all done, and after a few little tweaks, my Bronco is perfect again.

Cut bumper off in prep to remove body lift



Removed driver side body lift

 

We had a small party for National Night out. The local police blocked off the side roads, brought cupcakes and some stuffed animals for the kids. A few of them took interest in TGM. One of them got a tour of the truck by my step dad while I mingled. It was pretty neat!

 

new fuel pump in the 95 bronco and still didn't fix the issue. Back to the diagnosis board.

Replaced the old capacitor on the overhead console display. It comes on much quicker now! And doesn't cutout when I rap on it!!
