Re: bronco II runs bad after off roading

Yeah, I think our ignition systems are getting wet. Try silicone grease instead, load up all the electrical connections with it. I am gonna try that after I get my 4x4 and on board air systems working.

Re: Someone with an EVTM (shop manual) please help

Re: On The Fly Four Wheel Drive

Well, the clicking you hear in the dash is the relays in the electronic 4x4 controller. Mine clicks 3 or 4, sometimes more times whenever I shift, it's normal. As far as taking a while to go into 4x4, well yeah the transfer case begins the shift immediately, and as soon as you get the 4x4 light it ...

Thank you for the help drofman (and anyone else that chimes in)...it will run better with the 192* t-stat? You mean like gas mileage wise or overall?
