where are you in MI? Whereād you get it done? I thought Iād DIY it bc I donāt want to take my chances with just any shop but your review is a good one.
Happened to me twice.
First time I was on my way to a wedding, about 2 hours into a 3 hour drive. Despite attempting to turn it off and turning the bronco off/on a couple times the brake light never turned off but the brake itself wasnāt engaged. finished my drive and monitored the gauges with...
One side is still higher than the other and I didnāt notice much of a difference but I only tinkered with it once. Itās been too cold here in MI to keep doing it since it seems to require trial and error. I notice it every time I drive. Itāll likely be the first thing I do come spring.
While investigating what appears to be a stain on the wheel well (pic) I discovered the open end of a hose (pics) with an oily substance coming out of it.
Any idea what the hose is or is for? Or what it could be?
can you share a pic of the turbo tubing connection point locations for the 2.7?
I know only a very tiny bit about engines and what I learned on is a ā90 wrangler, 4.2L, manual v6 with a carburetor. :LOL:
Plus its only like 30 degrees f outside here in mi and I donāt want to have to figure it...
Thank you all for your knowledge, thoughts and contributions.
for us with a 2.7 what is a ānormalā coolant temp and ānormalā engine temp?
Any chance the low coolant, or high coolant consumption, (subject of other posts, not related to the pulley hose rubbing) could be indicative of the issue?
One way to āwinterizeā a vehicle for this exact situation is to apply spray silicone to the window tracks. Thereās plenty of guidance on the internet about how to do this. Give it a try!
I lubed the weatherstripping with spray silicone and it didnāt seem to make any difference with the window freezing. I may apply it again, more liberally to the window frame seal and see if that helps any. Iām in MI, as is Ford, and I keep wondering wtf ford was thinking with this.
