I have a 95 Bronco with a 351..for about a year now every once in a while she'll start rough and barely hold on and then it seem to be fine. She's even started rough, stalled and won't start till a 1/2 hr later. Had it to the mehanic and of course she was not acting up at that time so they just hanged the fuel filter. I think it's a relay, sensor or pump problem. Any idea's. Thanks

Welcome to the Zone >:D< <'> . I would hook up a fuel pressure gauge and leave it on so you can look at the pressure when it is acting up. It could very well be the fuel pump or the input screen getting clogged with crap in the bottom of the tank, but you need to either confirm or eliminate the fuel supply as a possible source. The pressure should be around 35 PSI.

Good luck,

yo,

In addition to what my pal Seabronc advised, is the Check Engine Light ON all the time?

Does it blink momentarily when first starting?

You can try a Self Test for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that will help us and you find a possible electrical or mech issue

Self Test by BroncoJoe19

do the KOEO = Key On Engine Off portion first & Remember to have engine @ Normal Operating Temperature before doing the KEY ON ENGINE RUNNING (KOER) portion

Post any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) found here by;

KOEO

&

KOER
