It doesn't take much to get one running.

I bought this '93 EB Bronco missing its battery, steering column, instrument cluster, rear driveshaft, hub locks, EEC, and several other parts. The coolant & gas were dry, and the fuel lines had been butchered. There's also a fist-sized rust hole in the right lower B-pillar.

So before I spent a lot of time fixing anything, I wanted to know how the engine ran. As you can see, the EEC isn't actually necessary, and neither is fuel pressure, for just a brief test. After checking the dipstick, I cranked it for a few seconds to pump some oil up into the lifters, then sprayed some brake cleaner into the throttle body. After shooting this video, I ran it longer by adding more spray to keep it running. But since there was no coolant, I didn't let it warm up.
