Piece of crap Bronco 2 tries small hill climb and barely makes if after numerous attempts

[bpurdy305]

Try 4lo, I have a bronco 2 i picked up for 400 bucks, it runs a hell of a lot better then that but it still lacks power. I learned because of these shitty engines, If you change the oil every 500-1000 miles and keep it geared low, they are awesome off road, They are very slow though and if you dont love it, it wont love you back.

my bronco would have done that easy its all stock to

LMFAO the hood scoop is the only reason that thing was running at all, that had to give it what? 15,20 horse power? Blow that motor having fun and get a used one in a junk yard for about $400 bucks

[tinman8555]

it is a piece of crap and he has no idea how to drive a stick

[Heptofite]

there's no oil pressure left in that engine, the lifters are collapsed so he's got no power.

2.9's cracked a lot of heads if you overheated them, the water gets in the oil, ruins the main bearings and then you lose oil pressure. the lifters are hydraulic so they collapse, then the valves don't open properly and you have no power.

Is there an easy way to fix that or should I just haul the thing to pacific and recycle it

[Heptofite]

rebuild the motor, or run some really thick oil or put some lucal oil stabalizer in the oil. those trucks are pretty solid, just have a few engine troubles.

[wework4beer]

Ill just tel him to run some 80w-90 gear oil in it and see what happens

[Heptofite]

NO NO FOR THE LOVE OF CHRIST NO!!!!

don't run anything thicker than 60 weight or you'll never start the engine!

Man, don't know what is wrong with his Bronco II but mine would have kicked that hills ass. Took mine to Uwharrie National Forest on the trails and it ran through em like butter. Something definately wrong with his.

[bowmaster24]

sounds to me like low compression in his engine.

[MOTOMATT02]

I have done that little "incline" in two WD with my toyota. Its up blue mountain.

[darkstories2]

wow idk wtf is wrong with his,mine wouldve wooped the shit outta that hill

[SW1911]

that BII is a pile of shit...and i like BII's.

[wework4beer]

They both run about the same (like crap)

[desmvp]

that thing sucks but at least it runs. he should get one of the rangers running.
