Please help
I have an 88 Ford bronco and the engine light stays on now and the oil pressure gauge is stuck at Max position! My husband says it might be the sensor, but he's not a mechanic and he'll tell you that...lol... Can somebody please tell me what's going on before I spend more money than I have to fix this problem?

Welcome to FTE.
You won't get many answers, to any questions here, in the introduction forum. However, if you take your question(s), to the, "Bronco" forum, then click on the appropriate years group, the folks there will be glad to help. You might also try the, "Engines, Performance and Troubleshooting", forum.
Last, but certainly not least, check out your Mo. state chapter. There may well be someone local, who has experienced a similar issue.

Sorry your having trouble, tell us more about your bronco ,Full size? engine size etc…., you do realize your bronco has a computer and the trouble codes can be read!.I do believe auto zone and advance will read your codes for free TR

Your Coolant temp might also be causing the problem
Works the same way
Check the wiring to the coolant temp sender for short to ground also

Chain parts stores wont check OBD I, codes, you will have to get the Innova 3145 ford OBD I code reader($35), or if your good at counting flashes(I aint), you can use a paperclip, and do it for free, Its cheaper than loading the parts cannon up add rapid firing away, see links.
