How much coolant does a Ford Bronco II hold?

'95 ford bronco keeps blowing fuse 13 it did it once i replaced the brake switch and it blew instantly i put the old swith in and it worked for a few days no when i put in a fuse it blows instantly?

Answer 1Fuses [and circuit breakers] are designed, intended, and installed in an electrical ciruit for one purpose, which is to protect the conductor [wire] from damage due to excess flow of current, which can be caused by overloading, or a short circuit to ground.

Unless a fuse is defective from the start, the "blowing" of a fuse is an indication of either an overload condition, or a short somewhere in the circuit.

The occasional fuse blowing described in the earlier stages suggests an intermittent short circuit.

The most recent blowing of each new fuse immediately upon installation indicates that the short circuit has gotten worse, and is no longer intermittent, but complete and continuous.

To continue to replace fuses will do nothing to correct the short circuit.

The proper way to correct the short circuit is to troubleshoot every switch, connector, conductor wire, and device in that circuit.

You will be looking for a cut or pinched wire in which an energized ["hot"] metal wire conductor is in contact with grounded body sheet metal of the vehicle, OR where a hot conductor is in contact with the metal wire of a ground conductor.

If neither of these is present, the probability is suggested that the short is internal to a switch or device.

-->>THERE IS A RECALL!!!!! PLEASE READ!<<--

That fuse also feeds the notorious 'cruise control cancel switch' which screws into the brake master cylinder under the hood. The diaphragm in the switch will fail, allowing brake fluid to leak into the electrical parts causing a resistive short. So far, you've been lucky that the fuse is blowing, instead of the wiring catching fire. To see if that is your problem, simply unplug the switch and see if the fuse keeps blowing.

How do you take the gear shift shaft off the transmission on a 1981 Ford Bronco?

Why in an '89 Bronco when you turn the key to start you hear two clicks but nothing happens?

start by having the battery checked. If the battery is good, then check the starter relay. If this is bad, repalce the starter. Also check battery connections. Sometimes they can seem tight but just aren't. Take them off the battery terminals and clean them. This will also stop your batter from charging.

What kind of of transmission fluid does a ford bronco do i use?

The Ford Bronco transmission can use any SAE certified transmission fluid. Ford transmissions manufactured before 1979 will need an F type transmission fluid.

Why does rust happen?

Iron reacts with oxygen in the air to from Iron Oxide, commonly Iron (IV) Oxide. Iron oxide is a weaker, more brittle material, and is reddish brown. So when you see rust, it is not longer the iron, but an entirely new material.

It is like Dough to a burnt crust. It used to be the stronger dough, but has changed into something completely different which is easy to crumple.

How bore and storke can a ford 460 go?

The most common stroker kits out there allow for up to 557 cubic inches with a passenger car cylinder block, by using a 4.50" stroke crankshaft and a 4.44" bore piston. Larger overbores may or may not be possible, depending on the cylinder block selected and how thick the cylinder walls may be with that particular block (sonic check the cylinders to determine max bore capability of the block selected). Unlike the BBC's, 4.50" stroke with the passenger car 460 block is always possible without any crankcase clearancing needed. Paul Kane www.highflowdynamics.com/

What would cause a 2002 Malibu to run for about 45 minutes then just stop and start again after setting for about 5 minutes?

I have a 98 Malibu with a similar problem (hot engine stall). Let sit for 5 minutes and runs fine. Other posts have directed me to the TCC Solenoid and the Crankshaft Position Sensor. I will be unhooking the TCC Solenoid to see if this clears the problem. If so, then it will be replaced.
