I have a 1990 bronco II, that is mis-behaving.... the problem is that... it seemed to be running fine til I put a can of 'sea-foam' into the fuel tank to clean things out (fuel line and injectors). Now it will run fine for awhile, but then it starts sputtering, bucking and dogging when you try to accelerate in any gear, however the engine revs fine when in neutral or if the clutch is depressed and seems to idle fine... sometimes if you turn the key off and let it sit for a few it will run fine for a few mins but starts doing it again shortly.... I have replaced the fuel filter, and double checked that the new one is clear. I'm wondering if the fuel tank or fuel pump may be sucking up sludge that was loosened by the sea-foam ???... As I said, it runs fine when 'cold'... any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated. Its a 'work in progress' and not my primary transport. I have a 2001 gmc savanna van as primary, but enjoy using the bronco around town and 4 wheeling.
