So i got my hands on another B2 this one is an 87 so its a step up being FI 2.9 I stlil need to get it running again (the fuel pump whent out). This one needed a front clip witch is almost on it now. Waiting on the fuel pump now once it runs again just need to swap tires and run it. Im thinking i wanna find soms 33s to eat up the extra 3 inches of hight..

The new bronco lives. It didnt need a fuel pump there was just a ground loose. So the first step is done gotta weld up the exhaust figure out a front bumper. Do an alignment and some minor body work and some piant. then she will be worthy of driving. So if any one needs a fuel pump for a 2.9 ford intank pump send them my way. I do need an IAC motor tho if someone has one laying around let me know please.

So after driving it a few day i still have a miss every now and then and itll sometimes bog out. I was kinda hoping with some run time this would clear up. I dont have any check engine light but who knows the bulb might be bad. Anyone have any clue on how to check engine codes on these?? i was reading online last night about it but it made no sense to me. I figured someone would have to know ( cough cough Tim? ).

I've done it a way to make the check engine light flash. All you have to do is jumper across a couple of the slots on the EEC test port plug ... or ...

I've got an EEC scanner in the glovebox of the tbird ... its a required piece of equipment with that car ... I'll throw it in the truck for the next time I see you.

Awesome thanks don. I don think my check engine light bulb works lol.

The check engine light should come on when the key is on but the engine is not running. If the light doesn't come on either the bulb is burnt out or you have other problems.
