    Weird Noise

    My truck has started making a strange noise, it use to only make it in gear but has started making it more often and even in park. It only does it at low rpm and when you are driving it doesn't make the noise.

    Idle Problem

    So i have an 87 bronco ii, i replaced the heads about 2 months ago, it runs ok but has a weird idle problem. It will idle fine for the first 5 minutes, then bog down. After driving it some, when i come to a stop, the rpms go up, then drop, then go up then drop. It will eventually try to even...

    Duraspark/TBI

    OK so i am planning on doing the tbi swap on my 2.8. AS with the duraspark i was told i need to have a switch for my a4ld. Do i need to have this to drive the car after i do it or is it just for the overdrive. Am i going to fry my trans if i dont put a switch on it right away?

    Fuel Injection

    Ok so i am looking to do the fuel injection for the 2.8. The carb stuff just confuses me to much so i thought i would just go with the fuel injection. so my question is, will i have to have a switch for the converter lock up like for the duraspark? I have an 85 with the a4ld.
