I'm having a problem with my 78 Bronco. It hesitates then dies. Sometimes it won't start for an hour. It seems to happen more often when it's cold and when it's going up a hill.
Just about everything on the truck has been replaced since December 02. New Holley Truck Avenger 4 barrel carb, alternator, starter, power steering pump, battery, new hoses on the fuel line, new fuel pump, new C6 transmission, ignition module, ignition coil.
About the only thing that hasn't been replaced are the engine and the distributor/plugs/wires.
I'm in the Denver, Colorado area. Took it to lower elevations (Fargo, ND) and it seemed to be running better there. I bought the truck in Nebraska for a steal and have been replacing things as they've needed it. It sat around for 8 years, so anything with rubber is shot.
There is a leak in the fill hose from the gas cap to the tank, good luck on finding that anywhere around here. So far I've been quoted 3-4 hundred for a custom bent stainless steel tube.
I'm not sure what it could be, and would like to get it fixed without replacing everything that I haven't already replaced.
Any one had this problem before? Any ideas on what could be causing the problem or where I could get a rubber till hose would be greatly appreciated. Replies to the group or email equally welcome.
