1967 Ford Bronco: 289 Motor, 3 speed transmission Runs and drives very well. Used as a daily driver in summer (except when it is raining). My wife also drives it regularly. History and Condition: This Bronco is from Nevada, and the body is very solid. The only rust present (very little) is...

Added Details

All the info, and pictures are on Craigslist. Here's the link: http://seattle.craigslist.org/kit/cto/1622547694.html General: 1967 Ford Bronco: 289 Motor, 3 speed transmission Runs and drives very well. Used as a daily driver (except when it is raining). My wife also drives it regularly...

Well, I checked as much as I am able it seems: There is 12v to the Module and 12 v to the coil. I cleaned everything under the distributor cap, which was fairly clean anyway. No go. I tried just a loose spark plug on one of the sp wires, grounded to the block...no spark still. I don't...

OK, will check the ohms later today. I did pull the cap and rotor, cap, etc. looks good. They are only about 6 months old. Also, before we tried to just get a spark from the coil to the fan cowling. No go. Also, no spark to plug grounded to frame.

Went out to start the Bronco the other day, it turns over fine, just wouldn't start for some reason. Doesn't even begin to catch, just turns over. It's been running absolutely fine and I drove it in and parked it where it sits...no problem. Tested around... fuel in carb and fuel in glass...

By the way, I found an article on the West Marine website which gives a detailed description of the problems with Ethanol in fuel, what stabilizers can and can't do, etc. etc. The link will show up if you bring up a fuel stabilizer product.

Hey BK69er....I'll check out that site. Now worried on the boat side... I probably have 25 gallons of fuel sitting in a 90 gallon tank below the deck. I have been using ethanol fuel in it. I don't know how the heck I could get it out of there. Sounds like my homework is to find a fuel...

Am getting ready to winterize the Bronco and boat. I put fuel stabilizer in both last year and the Bronco turned out to be a disaster. Bronco wouldn't run at idle, sputtered and jumped, etc. Whatever happened with the stabilizer, it took 2 tanks to get the junk out and about 10 inline fuel...

Yep, it's the same top. See pic on Craigslist.

I have a white hard top for sale which is in good condition. Please reply and I will send you pics. It's also on CraigsList w/ a pic.

I ended up buying Mustang seat skins from a Mustang specialty shop. My early '67 had the Mustang seats, as I am fairly sure your 66 does. It turned out very well.

Thanks Chuck. The main thing was I wanted to make sure the weatherstrip would work with the heat. I'll go ahead and throw it back together now. Only have 2 cables...which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it I guess!

I have my heater core out and have found that I only have a couple of 4" pieces of the main gasket left. Instead of ordering this gasket, could weatherstripping or some other thing be used? Would like to get it put back together as soon as possible. Also, any advice on how to get the cables...
