Hi there.
i am new to the Bronco II (pretty much a newbie full stop really).
i recently bought mine off a guy on the south coast of England.
it's an ' 87 (i believe), shipped into the UK at the beginning of the '90s.
i am slowly working thru a list of faults i want to fix.
i just had some core plugs replaced in the cooling system as i had a leak.
seems to be holding coolant fine now...finger x'd,
however....for at least 10 minutes (until getting properly warmed up), the truck's temp gauge seems to creep back and forth between a third and two thirds within the 'normal' field.
why do you think this is?
dodgy temperature sensor/sender? thermostat?
any help greatly appreciated.
i'm sure i will be here quite a bit over the coming months as i roll out my list of things-to-do.
hope to hear from someone soon...
