    I see three relays under the hood on the drivers side. Green -> I think this is the fuel pump relay Brownish -> I think this this EEC relay greyish -> I think this is something to do with towing. That is what it says on the plastic cover. The problem is the pins in this don't seem to match the...

    I must be missing something simple, because I cannot get all the screws off of the air filter housing to remove the lid and inspect the filter. 4 out of 6 of them come out no problem. The other two are attached to something round underneath and just spin. Any ideas on how to get the screws out?

    Hey guys, I had about a week of beautiful transmission shifts until more problems started ocurring. When I accelerate, it feels as though the transmission tries shifting 1-2, but drops out of gear (into neutral?) and the car loses power. After a few seconds it goes back into gear (either 1 or...

    Hey Guys, I had made a previous post asking where the VSS is on a 90 Bronco, since I couldn't find it at the rear of the t-case like everyone said. I've since had a hypothesis that maybe the previous owner / some shop removed the VSS for one reason or another? I've confirmed the tranny is an...

    Hey Guys, I'm trying to troubleshoot a wobbly speedometer and late shifting. I've seen some contradicting responses on the forms. From what I understand, the 1990 E4OD does not have a PSOM, and uses a mechanical speedometer cable from the t-case. I unhooked the speedometer cable from the t-case...

    Hi Guys, First time on this forum. I just bought a 1990 Bronco XLT. I replaced the iac unit but now the car won't idle. It dies after I crank the key. Could it be a bad unit? or something else. Thanks :)

    Hi guys! I'm hoping you can help me with some ideas I have for my bronco. I recently bought a 1990 bronco and I am wanting to put an aftermarket touchscreen radio with navigation in it. The problem is the touchscreen would cover up the heater controls because the radio is on the bottom. I...

    Hi guys! I’ve been lurking a bit, I think it’s time for me to go legit. So, been ring shopping for the girl (also time to make that legit) and I jokingly said “you get a diamond, what do I get!?” and she hits me back with “well I’ve been thinking about that, and I think I’ll buy you the old...

    So I have a 90 lifted with 35’s and a 5.8. I just read the thread 4:11 or 4:56 thread and gained some insight. My problem. I bought the truck with the assumption that I have stock tranny (40d) and stock gears (3:73). I have a big lift and just smoked the forward gears in the tranny. The tranny...

    What are these metal railings in the bed of my 1990 Bronco Eddie Bauer? They were behind the rear panels. There is one on each side of the bed. I'm thinking about removing one in order to fit some storage, but don't want to if it serves a structural purpose. Thanks.

    I'm just now getting into redressing my '90 302 5.0 and obviously running into some trouble finding certain parts for Bronco specific fits, but I do see a lot of things that says they would fit the '90 Mustang 302. Hard to find any direct answers & I just want to know what exactly are the...

    Hi all, I’m new to this forum so please excuse any mistakes. Anyways getting to the point, I have a 1990 Bronco with the 5.8 and E4OD.
