Something I have noticed and wanted to discuss or look for solutions, is that the Bronco 2.7 does not seem to manage heat very well.
This is mainly in the desert when off-roading where we need to use quite a bit of power for hill climbs and maintain tourque when swtiching dunes etc etc. Manual mode is best and we keep the RPM high when needed.
In these situations the Bronco really seems to suffer with heat management, 125 degrees C for the engine and 120ish for the transmission can likely happen within minutes and power loss is subsequent.
Not sure if this is the design of the engine, or maybe the small 2.7L block.. However, I wanted to ask here if there would be anyone that can recommend solutions for us to fix this.. Other than the heat, car seems to perform very well.
