89 bronco ii problems
I have a 1989 bronco ii and it has problems running.
Usually it will start right up. But after I drive around for 5 minutes or so and I let up off the gas. It just suddenly dies. And I was at McDonalds the other night and I had to keep my foot on the gas at the drive through so it wouldn't die. But after waiting for 10 minutes it died anyways. And then I have to wait roughly an hour before it will start up again after that. I just got the battery replaced today and it's still doing the same thing. Any idea what the problem could be.? |

How does the vehicle idle after you start and run for 5 minutes. Does it run rough or just idles low. If it runs rough, you might have a tune up related problem. If it idles low, you will need the idle control valve cleaned and even replaced. Good Luck.

Re: 89 bronco ii problems
it idles low. would the idle control valve cause the vehicle to just stop running once I take my foot of the gas? and when it begins to die it sounsd as if the vehicle is running out of gas.
