![]() had a guy swap motors from a 85 bronco to a 86 P.U. Both had 302 EFI's. The P.U. had a bad motor.
He comleted the swap and called me. i took the truck home tonite. it seemed to run good untill it warmed up (5 miles down the road), then it lost alot of power (top speed 65 mph).. while driving at 50, it keeps kicking out of top gear when you let off the gas. Also, any short test drive (of a mile or two) and the exhaust manifold's get so hot they get red... Both vehicles ran good prior to the engine swap (other than bad main bearing in the truck motor). I really need to drive this truck until the weather improves... HELP PLEEZ!!!
