help!
Lately by 1987 Bronco XLT witha 302 hasn't been running so weell. We replace thestarter yesterday, it had corrided because of water and now when i start it, it starts kind of loud and choking, it has stalled once, but if i give it gas it doesn...(never used to do this). THen it runs alright until you slow down, then as you are starting to go it shakes really bad like the distrubutor is wet, it sounds like it is going to stall..

any ideas whats up? I think its the distrubutor but i'm not sure..

help please
thanks

How long since the last tune up? You may wnat to look at the spark plugs, wires and distributor cap. They break down with age and exposure.

You may want to run the KOEO and KOER codes to see if all is well with the sensors.

Thanks man!

Yea Distributor, spark plugs and wires are all fine. We think its the starter she turns over but the starter whines like nothing you've EVER heard, I'm going to take it back tomorrow and then see how she goes
