Well my problems came back after running good for a month, My 1988 bronco ii 5 speed had a loose ground causing it to buck and surge. Well this month my bronco ii started running worse then ever it would start missing and would idle low at a stop sign then finally come to a complete stall. It got worse to the point where i couldent start my engine fuel pressure was at 0. I replaced the fuel pump relay and fuel pressure came back and i was able to start the truck. It drove good for a few days but today it's starting to do that idle surge again. but i still have power when driving. At a stop sign it will idle from 900 down to 500, If i give it gas it will shoot back up for a few seconds.
so i have been engaging the parking brake at stop and holding the accelerator so it idles at 1000. Any ideas this motor has been really frustrating it runs good until warm and idles like crap. Also before i replaced the fuel pump relay i had bad spark knock that went away. I always thought it was just knocking because it was cold. any help would be greatly appreciated
