Get Answers About Your Ford Bronco II1987 Bronco II Drive Train & Driveline MalfunctionHi. I have a 1987 Bronco II with an automatic transmission. 240, 00 miles and minimal problems until now. About 6 months ago when the weather turned cold it began having trouble shifting into 2nd gear until the engine/tranny warmed up about a mile down the road. Then last night going up a hill it just started losing power. The engine didn't seem to be turning the transmission at all. I made it to a parking lot and let it sit for a few minutes. I started it again, put it into gear, and it moved out fine. However, when I stepped on the brake and went to turn onto the street again, all power was gone again. So I shut it off, let it sit and cool, then started it again. It went into reverse fine, got me to a parking spot, but when I hit the brakes again and let off, all power was gone again. I got it home by towing it. I messed with it again this afternoon and it went into forward gears initially. It didn't care when I stepped on the brake. It went into reverse once after a 2 second pause, then it wouldn't go into reverse at all.Also, It has plenty of fluid, maybe a little too much even. If it makes any difference, I had the transmission fluid flushed and replaced for $60 about 20, 000 miles ago. I think they used Dextron-mercon fluid like it says on the dipstick. Thanks in advance for your help. You have a great site. After 2 hours on the net looking for info, your site is the best I've found. Rob Hamilton 1988 Bronco II Electrical & Lighting Systems Othercheck engine light came on, would like to know what systems are tied into the check engine? it comes on and goes off, when it comes on it is alittle sluggish and sometimes stalls.1989 Bronco II Engine FailingThe clutch has been chugging and making noises when the clutch was in. A mechanic somehow fixed it and said i need to have the cluch pushed all the time and in the future would need a new clutch plate. It was running fine until today when I went out and tried to start it. The truck buckled a little and then the clutch fell flat against the board. I checked the clutch fluid and was just just about empty. I filled it up with brake fluid and the clutch came back up off the floor. The problem is now the pressure is weak and it acts like it isnt pushing the hydrolics. I am unable to shift into any gears. Any advice. Could be air in the lines, but I first pumped the cluch a few times with the new fluid in with the top off to oush the air out, then refilled. Not sure if its the slave cylinder or if theres air in the lines. If so, how would I go about bleeding it or checking?1988 Bronco II Engine OtherFirst is has a 2.9l 4x4 manual with 140, 000 on it.

Put a new oxygen sensor in it the other day and the next day it would not start. Checked for spark which it has and checked the fuel pressure and it came right up. Next checked the spark plugs and they were all foiled, replaced those and the wires and it started up, then tried to restart it and it had some hesitation but started. Would start fine when it was warm but with a little hesitation. NExt morning when it was cold wouldn't start. Got it started with starting fluid and it ran fine and would restart once warm but again with hesitation. So I pulled out the new oxygen sensor and put back in the old one. Started with no hesitation about three times, then even though it was warm was having troubles starting, so I pulled the battery negative cable to reset the computer and seemed to fix it. THis morning when it was cold went out to start it and it wouldn't start.

WHEN I ACCELERATE TO SPEEDS OF 55MPH OR GREATER AND MAINTAIN THAT SPEED THE ENGINE OVERHEATS, IT TAKES THE TEMPERATURE ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES TO REACH THE RED ZONE. WHEN I STOP TO LET IT COOL DOWN THE WATER/ANTIFREEZE FLOWS OUT OF THE RESEVOIR OVERFLOW TUBE. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN SITTING SINCE JANUARY OF THIS YEAR WHEN I WENT TO IRAQ.THIS STARTED ABOUT MAY OF THIS YEAR WHEN I RETURNED IT DID IT ONCE. IN JUNE I FLUSHED THE RADIATOR WITH A HOME KIT AND PUT NEW WATER & ANTIFREEZE IN IT. THE TRUCK THEN DID IT AGAIN DRIVING FROM FLORIDA TO GEORGIA IN JUNE OF THIS YEAR SO I PULLED INTO A REST STOP AND WAITED UNTIL THE WEATHER COOLED DOWN (NIGHT TIME) AND DROVE THE REST OF THE WAY IT WAS NOT SO BAD THEN CAUSE I COULD DRIVE ABOUT 65-70 MPH IT WOULD STILL RUN HOTTER THAN NORM BUT NOT OVERHEAT. NOW IT IS WORSE CAUSE IT OVERHEATS AT SPEEDS OF 55 MPH WHEN MAINTAINED FOR AROUND 10-15 MINUTES AND IF THE SPEED INCREASES SO DOES THE TEMPERATURE.

Runs alright around town but can hardly get it up to 60 mph out of town. The rpm's go up when given gas but the speed does not. Have taken it to two mechanics and they have installed a new O2 sensor, map sensor, fuel regulator, checked compression and exhaust system and fuel pressure. Installed new spark plugs and the is firing ok and getting fuel. Acts like transmission is slipping but its not. Got any suggestions?Get Answers About Your Ford Bronco II1988 Bronco II Ignition System Won't StartMy Ford BroncoII 1988 will not start. I got it out the shop about 3 days ago for valve cover gaskets and a waterpump. When I got the truck back I changed the distributor cap and rotor and the plug wires. The truck ran fine and I parked it last night and this morning it would not start. There is fire going to the coil, and the fuel pump is working. The engine turns strong but it will not crank, the lights and radio are working, I even tried jumping the battery to just eliminate some problems and still nothing. I put a new MAP sensor on and still it won't start. The truck did this same thing before about 6 months ago but it eventually started after about 30 minutes. Now it will not start at all. It is a 2.9l V6 manuel trannsmission.Prior to putting the wires on I noticed it was idleing a little rough and sluggish and the RPM's were fluctuating at idle so I adjusted it so it would idle a little higher and it seemed fine. All the plug wires are on good and have good contact.1986 Bronco II Drive Train & Driveline LaggingTransmission Problem: 3 speed + OD automatic is loosing power after 30 minutes of driving, down to 10 mph on <5% grades. The longer it drives(hotter it gets) the slower it gets. Transmission has been replaced twice in 3.5 years by local professional. Truck is never taken off-road or abused, normal in-town driving only.I was told years ago and have since forgotten that there is a trick or special part that has to be installed just-so to get a transmision install right. Obviously, my local expert/professional does not know what it is. What is that illusive special trick/part on these 86 Broncos? 1988 Bronco II Engine MalfunctionI have a bronco 2 i flushed the motor now it seams that i mite have cloged the oil pump when it is idling no oil lite but when you rev it up to drive the lite comes on & there is a chattering in the motor!
