'84 Bronco II 4.0L wont cold idle randomly Bogs down
So I just picked up this bronco II with what appears to be a first gen explorer 4.0 setup, all I know for sure is that it has the aluminum upper like the 1st gens Ive seen and not the plastic ones like my 1997 was.
It runs pretty good, the only real problem is that when you go to start it without it warmed up, it will not idle. It almost does, but will die.
As a note the only thing that isnt complete is the exhaust. right now its open header. Right where the cat would be is open so its loud. Would that be enough loss in back pressure to cause this.
