I decided to get a Melling high flow pump to replace the stocker; I figure you can’t… 1995 Ford Bronco - Bolted the pick-up to the new pump, the little rod sticking out of the pump is the drive shaft for it, which runs off the distributor. If t… 1995 Ford Bronco - Bolted the pick-up to the new pump, the little rod sticking out of the pump is the drive shaft for it, which runs off the distributor. If t… 1995 Ford Bronco - I set it all in the pan and ran the pump backwards by hand to prime it, don’t want to start up dry. 1995 Ford Bronco - With the pump and pick-up in the pan, along with the gasket set in place throw it back up in place, it was a really tight fit, I guess beca… 1995 Ford Bronco - Now you have to bolt in the oil pump and pick-up. Easier said than done, because the oil pump was heavier it was a PAIN to hold it in place… 1995 Ford Bronco - All bolted in, looks good. Now all left to do is reconnect everything and test run it. I ran it for a ½ hour in the driveway, not leaks acc… 1995 Ford Bronco - I have never been dirtier in my life, not to mention really sore the next day. 1995 Ford Bronco - With a sticker on the inside of the hood, I mark the project off my list.
