I just bought a 1994 Bronco with the 302 in it. It has the manual 5 speed and when shifting sometimes it stalls when the clutch is pushed in.

Any ideas?

Yo Duff,

Welcome!

How is the idle, does it have a tach?

Is check engine light on?

Inspect air inlet tube from atop radiator through filter and flex. tubing to throttle body for obstructions, cuts, etc.

Try a Self Test for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC)s by my pal, BroncoJoe19 @ http://broncozone.com/topic/14269-code-reader/?pid=74587&mode=threaded

Try my vacuum leak test in post #20 @

Post Code(s) here according to:

KOEO

&

KOER if you can get engine to normal operating temp.

The engine temperature must be greater than 50° F for the Key On Engine Off (KOEO) Self-Test and greater than 180° F for the Key On Engine Running (KOER) Self-Test.

Hello and thanks for the welcome,

Not too sure if I can answer all the questions yet. My wife bought it for me out in Oregon, but I have not made my way out there yet...another month to go. I will ask her for more details and get back as soon as I can.

Thanks for the help!

Duff

Yo Duff,

Yw!.

Now she is a better-half for sure!

Check Engine Light (CEL) comes on when the electronic engine control system is not working properly. The check engine warning indicator comes on briefly when the ignition switch lock cylinder is turned to ON, and should turn off when the engine starts. If the check engine warning indicator does not come on when the ignition switch lock cylinder is turned to ON or if it comes on while the vehicle is moving, the system is malfunctioning.

If the CEL does not light up at all when starting it; then suspect that bulb is burnt-out or loose, socket was damaged by PO or shop, etc. or someone removed it.

Ask her if when idling, is it rough? Any black , Blue/Gray, or White/Gray Smoke exhaust smoke?

With a tachometer, what does it read in rpm and does needle flutter?

Does letting engine warm up to normal operating temperature (between o and r on the gauge) help smooth idle or keep it running when shifting to first?

Later...
