Bronco Full Size V8-302 5.0L (1986)
Affected Vehicles:
All 1986-1/2, 1987, 1988 and 1989 Model Year gasoline powered F-Series Pickup Trucks including Chassis Cabs, and Bronco vehicles with EFI
engines sold or operated in Mid-West and Western Regions and the Yukon Territory. Vehicles involved were produced from February 1, 1986, through
to the end of the 1989 model year.
Reason For Recall:
Field investigation has determined that repairs specified in Recall 88S57 were not completely effective in preventing the condition of pinhole leaks
forming in the U-shaped fuel tube ("Jumper Tube") connecting the on-frame fuel pump to the fuel filter.
Correction:
To prevent this condition from re-occurring, the U-shaped fuel tube, the frame mounted filter and the fuel delivery tube from the filter to the engine will
be replaced with a steel braided electrically conductive fuel line from the high pressure frame-mounted fuel pump to the engine. A fuel filter cartridge
will also be installed in the fuel reservoir.
