what have you wrenched on your bronco(s) today? - snipes243 - 02-03-2015
So I maxed out the highlift trying to measure for new shocks. Which I have to wait till next week to order since everyone is at KOH.

Then I got bored and dissemble the entire cage and dash. Oh fun

What, no cinder blocks laying around? Just fab up an RTI ramp!
I took a break from the Bronco today. I did start researching Odyssey batteries since my yellow top Optima is doneski. The Die Hard Platinum batteries Odyssey has been making are going to be discontinued soon so I won't be going that route for fear of warranty issues with Sears. Looks like I am going to bite the bullet and buy an Odyssey.

BTW- Just noticed that wheel chock preventing your junk from rolling down the hill. NICE!!!

Chased my unstable idle issue and intermittent low RPM stall. I suspect the TB adjustment screw may have backed itself out but still have to confirm the issue is resolved. Reset the base idle so hope all is well again.
Found I had the electric fan for my trans cooler going the wrong direction which explains why my trans temps (210) exceeded my engine temps (180). More testing tomorrow.
For fun, because I am this lame, I measured the amperage draw of my different components which are likely to be used for extended periods of time with the engine off.
Not that anyone gives a crap, but here is what I came up with:
EEC memory and radio memory 0.003 (2 years)
Battery isolation solenoid 0.720 (2 days)
Radio 6.500 (4 hours)
Dome lights 1.290 (24 hours)
Rock lights 1.000 (33 hours)
Parking lights 3.560
Head lights 8.300
Yes, I have no life!

Well aren't you just a little busy Bee! Must be nice to have all this free time to do odd ball testing on your bronco! ( yes, I'm jealous. Shut up)

It was either that or rake leaves.

To love others, you must first learn to love yourself...
I would say I am getting pretty good at the latter. ;-)

No details needed on that Chuzie!!
Been distracted by the KOH races this week. Hadn't done much of anything

Same here.
Hey do you still have those stock seats I could borrow for a few days?
