1986 FORD BRONCO II Recalls (4)

Campaign:
85V116000 on 09/29/1985
Component:
Electrical system:wiring:front underhood
Manufactured:
07/31/1985 - 07/31/1985
Affected:
7,886
Defect:
The electronic engine control wiring harness insulation may be damaged due to copper spikes produced during the welding of its wires. this creates a potential for a short circuit between the wires which energize the fuel pump, causing some fuel injectors to open, discharging fuel into the engine. consequence of defect: fuel discharged into the engine would eventually leak through the exhaust system to the ground. this could result in a fire if a source of ignition is present.
Correction:
Repair wiring harness, check engine and catalyst for damage.
Notes:
Vehicle description: light trucks equipped with 2.9 liter engine. system: electronic engine control wiring harness.

Campaign:
85V130000 on 11/03/1985
Component:
Fuel system, gasoline:delivery:hoses, lines/piping, and fittings
Manufactured:
07/31/1985 - 09/30/1985
Affected:
30,564
Defect:
Nylon fuel lines on the fuel return side of the fuel pressure regulator assembly may crack. consequence of defect: fuel line could leak and, if an ignition source is present, create the potential for a fire.
Correction:

Campaign:
87V139000 on 09/08/1987
Component:
Fuel system, gasoline:delivery:hoses, lines/piping, and fittings
Manufactured:
06/30/1985 - 07/31/1987
Affected:
3,600,000
Defect:
Spring lock fuel line coupling may not be properly engaged.
Consequence:
Coupling could disengage due to fuel pressure,vibration, and engine movements; this would cause loss of fuel which, inpresence of an ignition source, creates a fire risk.
Correction:
Install retainer clips over the couplings to prevent coupling separation and fuel leakage.
Notes:
System: fuel line couplingvehicle description: passenger cars and light trucks equipped with fuelinjection.

Campaign:
88V145000 on 09/08/1988
