Well here's something you certainly don't see every day, a 1984 Ford Bronco II and interestingly enough it happens to have a 2.8 Cologne V6 under the hood! So, as the story goes when this truck came to us it refused to start and would not stay started once it would was running. Time to dive under the hood and under this maligned small Ford SUV to see what's what!
Let's all agree on something and it's a basic part of getting any internal combustion engine running, there are 3 things you need. These are Air, Fuel, and Spark if one of those components is missing, you're not going to make fire and without fire you aren't going to make power. With a little diagnosis the issue is tracked down and so begins to the battle to fix it. Unfortunately these Cologne V6s and their German engineers didn't do us many favors with these motors and you'll see Rich really really not enjoying the experience of getting this little truck to fire up again.
At the end of the day, we won, and another odd ball little 80s machine is back on the road. With the reintroduction of the smaller modern Bronco and Bronco Sport by Ford recently, will these little beasts see a growth in popularity? Or will their reputation keep them forever banished from the Cool Kids table? Either way this one is running and on to it's next step!
