The Motor is Out

Post by BSpick »

I took everyone's advice and decided to pull my motor out myself. It took me almost a year to finally find the time, space and equipment, but on Saturday the 50 year old 302 finally came out! No injuries sustained! Now hopefully I can remember how it all goes back in when the time comes!

I picked up a used 302 from another Bronco owner with about 60k on it. He decided to put an ecoboost in his. Did some minor stuff to it (water pump, new clutch/flywheel, thermostat, plugs, wires, etc) My main goal is to get mine back on the road (been sitting since 1998). Gonna drive it for a bit and save up some more funds for future work!
