Sister wants a wheelin rig. Any ideas?

[FROADER]

It's a big vehicle for a 1st time wheeler, but if that's what she wants and can afford it...

 

[greenbeer]

That's what I said! But, after driving a few even lifted she said she is in love...

 

[greenbeer]

It's just too bad that SAS 95 that's for sale on here is so far away. There is just too many mountain passes to cross and with the 4wd not working it would be a bear...

 

[FROADER]

I'll sell her mine for 5k.

Are you actually trying to sell, or just throwing it out there in case she is interested?

Well, having owned 17 or 18 vehicles in the 15 years I've been driving I don't get too attached to them, sooo...I guess It's for sale.

I'll start a thread.


And, I'll meet you in Sacramento.

Didn't you say you regretted selling the other one when the guy drove off with it? Wish i had the money...

SAS the van and wheel that then?

Well, unfortunately it is over my budget and out of my range. Otherwise, I would get it

Okay, walked away with the Bronco for $2300! WOW! This thing is smoooooooth. Not a problem with it. All the records check out as well as the only two OLDER owners. Runs and drives like new, no joke. Pics will be up soon, as well as pics of it growing up into a trail ready rig! It's kinda a shame though...it's so pretty right now.

 

[FROADER]

Sweet! Congrats to your sister.

 

[greenbeer]

So the Bronco only runs when it wants to...It just died without warning in the middle of the road! Then it will start sometimes, run for a minute, then a click from under the hood and nothing. Not cool.

 

[JMan689]

What kinda of 5.8 is in it? Does it have an ICM? I know the PIP sensor in the distributors and the Stator are known to go out.

Bummer dude... :thumbdwn:

 

[greenbeer]

It's FI with the sensor on the distributer. Not sure what a PIP is??

Its a sensor inside the distributor, i'd shoot for that first, Reman is a hit or miss product, i've heard alot of people have problems with theres but then others don't. I bought one from advanced auto and it was bad.

I can't remember if it was a Lightning only thing or not, but the ICMs are prone to failure, like out of no where die, i keep a spare in the truck.

But first i'd do the usual, check for spark and fuel when it won't start... My guess is on spark.

 

[greenbeer]

Yeah no spark when dead. Is that aka a TFI module?
