that sucks. well i guess you found the reason for the no starts.....After a few failed attempts to get the engine running good it was obvious it needed to be rebuilt. The tear down begins . . .
Found this.
It had not been started in 5+ years and a few of the valves got stuck. Good thing is it forced me to rebuild it the way I wanted.that sucks. well i guess you found the reason for the no starts.....

Hello FSB World, Names Terry. Quick story about my 92 XLT Bronco. I bought it in 96 from Burt Ford on Arapaho Blvd in Colorado. I got relocated there working for ICG which had the leaning building off of Hwy 25 in Inverness Tech Park. Burt was having a sale on 5.0, XL package, 5 speed for 15k. Having a new baby and having to deal with a bench seat. I said screw that!!. On the lot there was this 92 XLT 2-tone brown, full power, 351, auto. It had 31” BFG TA, 85k. Sold!!!! First thing I did was buy a Rancho 4’ lift with (6) 5000 shocks, (5) 586 rims with 33” Big O tires. New 3” exhaust, brakes, ADS chip, braided brake lines all from a Speed shop that is no longer with us. Super Shops.
After that I relocated to Spokane Washington. I bought a traction kit from 4 Wheeler parts. It consisted of an 8.8 Detroit, a TrueTrac for the front and 4.56 gears all around, rebuild kits and new Warn hubs. Central 4 Wheel Drive installed the kit for me. What a hugh difference in traction. Then I moved from Spokane to Idaho. I bought 60 acres and a 2k sq. ft. log house in Rathum, Idaho. The place came with a 10 acre rock quarry. I was in heaven. Next I got a set of BFG 34x12.50 AT’s . Then I got relocated back to Denver then to Orlando then to Georgia.
I have completed the following upgrades, Flow tech headers, 3g Alternator out of a 95 Mustang, Air Conditioning out of a 98 Mustang, Sagsaw Steering pump from a 99 E250 van, under drive pulleys from Steeda, FIPK air filter from K&N, 95 ECU, 95 E4OD trans which I have rebuilt it myself with a shift kit, 95 manual T-case (No push button), 2005 F150 rear leaf springs (lengthen the wheel base over 3”), relocated the rear shocks up higher, James Duff 70/30 long ass shocks, Super Lift tractions bars. I have dumped the rear bench seat for Summit racing buckets seats, G-Force 3’ lap belts. I removed most of the interior plastic. . I have had 4 sets on the Bronco now. I just changed to Mickey Thompsons Bear Claw TTC’s. The truck rides much quieter. I have posted pic’s showing most of the upgrades. The Bronco is not my daily driver but it could be at any time. AC, cruise control all work. It will spin the speedo around but is very scary at that speed. I can drive it to Colorado wheel is and drive it back in comfort.
Figuring out the posting method.
