My 67 had the screw broken off seized in the threads when I removed the dash.Removed it and I used a 1/4 ss hex head screw and speed nut and it worked fine.

Hence the struggle to find a switched power source for the sniper. Thanks for all your input. Still learning a lot about this bronco (broncos in general) and I have owned it for 8 years!!!

It was changed a couple of years ago to an MSD HEI distributor. Not done by me but a professional mechanic shop.

I appreciate the input. Should have power at the brown wire at the solenoid at run without crank but do not. I don't think it is worth all the trouble of trying to figure out why I don't at this point and time. The bronco has never had a problem starting or running from an electrical...

Wife just got home so I was able to explore in more detail The solenoid posts for my setup only have power at the "S", "I", and starter post when the engine is cranking. No power from either small post in the run position. That pretty much eliminates anything off the solenoid from being a...

Original bronco solenoid. Power coming in on left hand side with multiple attachments to the large post. Small "S" post with green wire with red stripe connected. Small "I" post with brown wire connected. Right large post with cable running to starter. Powered post has 12 V at all times...

It has worked so far!!! Some other forums with discussions on the new throttle body EFI systems mentioned similar options although no one confirmed they had done it. It seems the most common difficulty, whether it is sniper, fitech, etc is finding a consistent switched wire that is powered in...

Sniper EFI is up and running. The original style solenoid did indeed have a brown wire on the I and a green wire on the S post. The brown wire had been painted over so a little acetone revealed the true color. The green red stripe wire had also been painted over, but also been spliced to a...

It is an original style 4 post solenoid. I will explore when I get a chance. 5 hour drive after work to pick up kids at summer camp in the NC mountains and coming back tomm. Hopefully tomm afternoon will get a chance to explore

I don’t know. That certainly could be an option to get it up and running and if it works well run with it until I rewire the darn thing. Put an inline fuse which could be low amp since this is just a switch to keep the ECU on. No major amp draw for the pink wire. Any one else with thoughts on...

1967. I knew the choke wire was an aftermarket addition and had concerns with it not being powered on crank. I will have to look at the solenoid again. I do not recall a brown wire on the I small terminal. This bronco has had many owners and many modifications. I would like to get it up and...

Thank you. That was what I thought based on other forum posts and some research as well my experience so far trying to wire a switched power source for the sniper EFI. Need a switched run and crank wire.

Can someone confirm whether or not the central post in an original bronco ignition switch/pigtail is switched power on for run and crank or just run only. I am assuming since the black wire green stripe is the accessory wire hooked to that post that it will also be powered with the key in the...

I understand 100% what you are saying about the electric choke should be switched power for both run and crank. The green wire with the red stripe and the black wire with green stripe are both connected to the same central post as the electric choke power wire. My understanding is that the green...

My understanding is the electric choke is default to the choke on position until enough heat increases the resistance to the passage of current to force it gradually to the choke off position. That is my limited rudimentary knowledge about electric chokes. In that situation power loss to the...

So I have red wire blue stripe, red wire yellow strip, and yellow wire (battery power wire I believe) coming into the pigtail Above that connected to the central post is the large eye ring with the black green wire and the green wire with red stripe. Another connection is the two purple wires...

Here are some pics

I know this has been bounced around in various other posts. I just want to make sure as possible next step. Vintage air installation is complete. Found a switched wire under the dash that is only powered in the run position, no power on crank and working fine for VA. Now onto Sniper EFI...

I have too many projects going on at one time. Parts arriving left and right. Wifes 79 trans am big projects. Just got my fathers twin 63 impala SS 409/425 down from Maine where they were sitting for more than a year and trying to get them cleaned up and running good. Full interior renovation of...
