Seeing as how I'm still new to this, I've got a fairly dumb question. I've got a 302 in my EB and I just recently noticed a burning oil smell coming from under the hood. It appears that when the engine gets hot a thin stream of smoke comes out from just underneath the spark plug closest to the...

Thanks guys for the helsp. Sorry for not giving the information on the truck. It's a 68 with the motocraft 2 bbl (I think stock). I took your advise and opened the carburetor last night. It appears from the rebuild instructions that I was suppossed to bend the float tang down to seat the...

That's the thing. I just rebuilt it!

Okay, major problem. I rebuilt the carburetor about two weeks ago. Everything was fine for about a week. Then I went into a store and came out and the Bronco wouldn't start. From then on, it will not idle at all and I've done my best to read the manuals I have. I pulled the limiter screws...

Re: try this... Thanks, that's perfect. It had exactly what I needed. Scott

Does anyone know where all the wires for the electric wipers go? I just put the electric wiper setup into my 68 and got rid of the vacuum wipers. I wired the switch so the wipers turn on and off, but there are roughly 6 or 7 other wires coming out of the wiper switch that aren't hooked up...

Thanks for all the help. It appears that I've got a wheel for a later year Bronco. If you connect the two pins with wire, the horn works fine. Broncograveyard has two different wheels depending on the year and the diagrams show that the 74 through 77 had a relay when the pre 74 didn't...

Hey all, I'm trying to troubleshoot why my horn won't work and I just can't figure it out. Here's what I know. The horn works if I jump directly from the horn to the battery and the two points under my horn button both get power. I tried to short out the points under the button as well as...

He just sent me a reply too. Funny, maybe this forums do have weight to them!

Well, now that I'm set on not using Custom Auto Upholstery, does anyone know of a company that re-upholsters Bronco seats?

Sorry to beat a dead horse, but the phone number I call, (541) 734-7747 has been busy non-stop for two weeks, and I call three, sometimes four times a day. At this point I'd like to find out what his story is, so if anyone else has a number for "upholsterman", I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Scott

Just looked it up and I paid with my debit card. Damn them.

Hey all, I ordered a set of bronco seats from Custom Auto Upholstery in Medford, OR. They took the money from my credit card and that was the last I heard from them. I've tried the phone number for a week and it's busy. Iv'e e-mailed with no response. They sell kits on ebay specifically for...

Thanks, I'll try that tonight. I checked Jeff's, but the troubleshooting guide doesn't deal with my problem. Thanks for the help. Scott

Quick question with hopefully an easy answer. I swapped axles this past weekend and the new axle has drum brakes (as did the old). I bled the brakes when I was done and the brakes work fine, except that there is a rubbing coming from the back passenger side rear that sounds like what disc...

Thanks all, I think I'll start with a new radiator and go from there. Thanks for the input. Scott

It probably sat about 3-4 months before I drove it. It was only driven occasionally though for the past five years.

Hello all, I just bought my first early Bronco. It's a 68 with the 289 and 50,000 original miles that I found sitting in a field in Montana (where I'm at). The truck runs great and I'm really excited about learning everything there is to know about both the 289 and the early Bronco in general...
