Why does the ford bronco shut off when you disconnect the battery?

1st there must be some reason as to why you are doing this. I don't feel it is ever a good idea to remove the battery cable while the engine is running. But if you must know, your engine can only keep running while it has 12 volts going to certain areas... such as coil and distributor. If it dies when you remove the battery then I would guess that the alternator is not working, which may be why you were testing this in the 1st place. A good test for your alternator is to put a volt meter across the battery and see the volts, then start the engine and see if the volts increase. If they dont and the volts are dropping then the alternator needs to be checked out.
