    Vent tube for Aux Tank

    Oooh, yea, let's hear some solutions before I put mine back in! I got the Aux tank from the PO uninstalled, all I need is some new straps and J-bolts then I'm good to go for intallation, but is it really a PITA to fill up??

    Overflow area on Filler Hose?

    I really hate to beat a dead horse but I still have some questions... Broncnaz, you said that there are two models of gas caps that would allow me to seal up the hole on the gas hose and still not have a fuel expulsion. I went to the Stant site but I'm confused as to which gas cap would work...

    No no, I mean, the wheels, or "rims" I guess you could say... :)

    Pics of my new 3.5" lift

    GREAT looking rig and I agree with 66horse, it looks much tougher... I really like your wheels, what kind are they?

    Overflow area on Filler Hose?

    Ahh, ok, I didn't think that was supposed to be there. So, I am missing a gas cap from my aux. tank and I thought, well, since one was gone and the main tank cap was a non-locking cap, maybe I could just hit Checker up for some OEM Stant locking gas caps. If I was to do this, would I still need...

    Overflow area on Filler Hose?

    Gang, A few days ago while filling up my EB with gas, I guess I got a little carried away and put just a tad too much petrol in it. Basically, I'm saying I overflowed the thing. However, I did not overflow it enough that gas came out of the main filler hole, it came out of this small hole under...

    vacuum wiper upgrade

    Well, this morning I just ordered the flip-up style blades from Wild Horses. I guess our problems are similar, but not identical. My issue was that I could not find the stock Bronco blades anywhere, plus mine didn't flip up so it was upgrade time (even more so now that we are getting snow)...

    running too rich? how to fix?

    2badrotties - Good advice, I'll have to check that on mine as well. 76Broncofromhell - I agree with you except there are a few things that shouldn't be a normal part of combustion. What I mean is I really don't want myself and my passengers to reak of gasoline just by going for a drive with me...

    running too rich? how to fix?

    Utahmike, Your problem sounds very similar to mine. Actually, this AM I noticed that the tail pipe had an unusual amount of condensation coming out of it as well. Something tells me that our problems are closley related. What I am planning on doing is a very thorough tune up. I'm replacing...

    when repainting parts, what spray paint do you use?

    I have always used a flat matte black can of Rustoleum. That usually does the trick and seems to last quite awhile.

    Wiper Question...

    Thanks SeaBiscuit68 & Gummi Bear, the wiper question is now crystal clear (no pun intended) to me. I'll find an Anco dealer and pick some up!! Cheers!

    Wiper Question...

    utahmike - I went to Napa yesterday and tried to find replacement blades. The guy told me that his book only went back to 1970 and he came back with the blades that were supposed to be the right ones. I didn't have my Bronco with me (I was crusing around with my roommate in his car) but they...

    Wiper Question...

    Awesome! Thanks, that would be great... Hey Gummi Bear, do the flip up style come with arms that hold regular, modern blades?

    Wiper Question...

    Utahmike - Something tells me that your '77 has different wiper arms then my '69. Mine look something like this: They have skinny connector points with different wiper blades. It has a little housing on it so that the skinny arm will fit snuggly. I have yet to use mine in snow/ice/rain...

    Wiper Question...

    Thanks guys, now I know! It's funny all the little things that need to be converted over or fixed or what have you before I can get things the way that I want them. Again, thanks...

    Wiper Question...

    This should be a no-brainer but for some reason I cannot find replacement wipers for my '69! I have only been to Checker so far, but from what I have found is that the attachment that comes with the blades to connect the blade to the Bronco wiper arm is too wide and skinny. I mean, I can put it...

    My engine wants to keep going - how to fix!?

    << Back out the air/fuel mix screw just a little bit at a time >> I hate to show how green I am by asking this question, but, how do I know when the air/fuel mixture is correct?? The idle is easy because you can hear about when it is correct but the air/fuel... I'm not sure of. Any suggestions?

    New Cologne - Aroma de Petrol... Heavy gas smell in cabin

    Thanks for the tips, guys! I think, however, that my gasoline smell (which by the way smells like already burned gasoline) and my diesling problem are linked in a way. http://www.classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=36871&perpage=10&pagenumber=1
