Bronco Guru
My Bronco was running fine until I brought the other one home
Well, the problem literally jumped up. I came home for lunch last thursday, running great, went to go back to work and she wouldn't start. After a weekend of trouble shooting, I am at a loss. At first, I thought that it was the fuel pump that went out. I have a lifetime warranty pump, so I took it back and that didn't fix the problem. It seems that there #1 isn't power getting to the pump. I traced out the wire, and ran it back to a relay. Thought the relay was bad and it seemed that was where the problem was, replaced that, no go again. So the wires in the relay are as follows..1 to fuel pump, 1 to a fuesable link on the battery side of the starter solenoid, 1 hangs free with nothing attached & 1 going into the EEC. I thought the relay was bad because I could hot wire the pump directly to the hot side of the solenoid and you can hear the pump. Well, when I do that, theroetically, it should start. All it does is just cranks and cranks. Step on the gas to give it a little and it kicks over and dies before the starter stops spinning.
I am not an EFI guru by any means, so I am pretty much at a loss and don't know which way to turn. What else could be going wrong and what should I look at before I take it to someone who knows what they are doing?
