It is so nice to see a married couple working together on something they love! Most men only dream of having their wife passionate about something they love!!! You guys rock and looking forward to each video! Maybe one day you do one on how you met and what you do for fun when not wrenching!
That noise (ticking) could be the balance weight on the flex plate hitting the spacer plate if you used the fox body one, all you have to do is pop the converter bolt plate off the bottom and if its that hitting you will have some aluminum shavings fall out. I just cut all the extra material out except for the trans and starter pattern to solve mine permanently.
I'm 'restomoding' a 76 bronco and had the same clearance issues with my electric fan and ended up mounting it directly to the radiator. Works like a charm and keeps it right at 190 degrees in this TX heat (I'm in McKinney).
Love broncos! Dad had 1 back in 77-80. Loved driving her when I 1st got my permit! I was willing to buy it when he planned on selling,but he sold it to some kid down the street from us. I was heartbroken. 🥺😥
You both have delivered another first class video ticket, I'll always fly with you. Thanks for sharing this electrifying video with us that watch your channel. Outstanding job. Always love a garage girl fixing things. Such a joy.
Erin, don't know if you've ever heard of this trick .. but here goes. Here in the NorthWest, moisture is always a problem, and we know metal can absorb moisture as well. My brother and I were prep'ing metal for paint, and he grabbed the propane torch to "dry out" the pieces we were about to paint. I was amazed to see the amount of very obvious moisture that the torch pulled from the pieces we were about to paint!! Longer story short .. paint really does bond better to "dry" material :) :)
I want a bronco just like that. When I heard the sound that you guys were talking about I instantly thought it sounded like an electric fuel pump. I had a Ford Ranger with a 351w in it. The electric fuel pump was loud as heck, but it had a 4 barrel on it. I miss that ole truck.
Glad that wrench didn't hit you in the eye or mouth. Love watching everything about your channel. Your mom skiing, cute Finley and nieces helping out, and Aaron is like the most calm easy going mechanic I have ever seen. Nothing but greatfullness since subscribing over 5 years ago. God bless your whole family.
Surface cleaner is great! Using rubber gloves when cleaning the parts also helps in keeping impurities off of your skin from getting back on the parts while cleaning.
I run two of the Holley sniper kits, one on my 400 Ford and the other on my Chevy 454, the injectors are definitely noisy and took me awhile to get used to, your noise sounds slightly different to me but maybe it’s just the way the camera picks it up. It’s a good system, I went to the progressive linkage for a while but could never get it to run correctly, gave up and went back to the original linkage and it’s happy again. Broncos looking great guys.
The big problem with a flex fan in an off-road situation is that the fan flattens out at high RPM. So when you're hill climbing or running through sand and mud, you need high RPM but you're only going 5 or 10 MPH. That flex fan becomes like a barn door blocking air flow and you're not moving fast enough for ram air effect.
I really enjoy watching this show and the bronco looks great. If I remember correctly all 302's are externally balanced, an older 302 non roller motor is a 28oz balance and you have to have a 28 oz balance harmonic balancer and flexplate, a newer roller 5.0 is a 50 oz balance. If I understand correctly you used the old 28 oz balance flexplate from the 302 onto the 5.0, if so you have it out of balance
One thing to think about when having the clearance so close is frame twist when rock crawling. A little flex and the fan goes right into the radiator. Used to be a common problem when upgrading the broncos to the 351 Windsor.
On my Small Block powered S 10 ran into the same problem with fan clearance I converted the electric fan to a pusher by just switching the leads, and mounted it on the outside of the radiator and mounted a flex fan on the motor.
I installed steel roller rockers in my SBC.. now it has a sewing machine kind of sound.. Not unpleasant but different from those old stock rockers or even Aluminum roller rockers.. Betty is doing good.. She needs those door lowers...
I had a similar problem with my sniper EFI.. And it turned out that I had a kink in my return line for my fuel system. So I was getting too much fuel pressure and that made the injectors tick in the EFI. Just hook up a fuel pressure regulator or gauge and you'll be able to see the line pressure.. Not saying that is your problem but it sounds just like mine did
I don't know why I didn't receive a notification when you posted this, but I'm glad It popped up and I saw it because I've been waiting on this video. It's awesome seeing the Bronco back on the road. I hope it isn't too hard to get the vibration out of it. It has to be one or the other. It meaning flywheel or harmonic balancer, or a little of both.
If you look in the Glove compartment there's a map on how to get to Moab. I'll be there Oct. 15-20. Ya'll outa come along. Betty is the perfect ride for that place!! You'll love Kane Creek! Dead Horse Point etc.!!!
Thanks for the video guys, I really like the details, I know it is hard to focus the camera, or put the right lights and reach a good point for the shot, but the result you achieved is perfect. Thanks again and wait for the bell notification for more videos. I recommend subscribing to this amazing channel and don't forget to put a thumbs up.🍀👍🍀
I have the exact same ticking coming from my unit(same unit) i have on my 302...84 mustang gt. Runs like a champ but the noise can be annoying. Still going to dig deeper much later on the issue after my acl reconstruction on friday. I'll be watching in case you figure it out or sending info as ill have alot of time to research....thanks
I have heard the Sniper injectors sound a lot like lifter ticking. I also have a Bronco with a Sniper and I am always paranoid about that ticking noise but have never 100% confirmed it is the injectors. There is a really helpful facebook group with tech advice!
Cardboard protection for that expensive aluminum radiator! Also saves a bit of skinned knuckles. Approved. T.V. cable: throttle valve. Sets the line pressure. Important! Need some fender covers, guys.
When I did my Holley Sniper EFI on my truck I made the mistake of mounting the Holley fuel pressure regulator on the firewall. It makes that ticking sound as well.
Great job on the Bronco! As excited as I was to see the Bronco project, I was more excited that yall used "Bolt Buckets". Just dump them on the floor to find what you need, then shovel it back in. The only problem is when your Used bolt buckets start multiplying....... Yup I have that problem. Great work yall !! I'm ready for Burnouts!!
Good old Lacquer thinner is still the best oil and Residue remover, then as a backup, use Denatured Alcohol(mine is 99%, from Amazon).. I hope you don't mind suggestions(65 years experience) but the old style quickly pumping the brake peddle, can actually cause Foaming of the fluid, and problems. Just slowly push the peddle to the floor about 2-3 times and hold , open bleeder when the peddle hits the floor, close bleeder, slowly let up on peddle.. If no fluid at start, & with the bleeder open slowly push peddle to the floor and hold until the bleeding screw is closed and slowly let up on the peddle.. Also always start at the bleeder furthest from the Master Cylinder.. Just some old man suggestions..
I had a thought about the fan shroud, which put the electric cooling fan too close to the accessory drive pulley: I noticed that the mounting shroud is essentially a four sided box and you mounted the fan on the outside of the box, adding the fan depth to the shroud depth. What if you put the fan INSIDE the box, and shaved off some of the fan mounting tabs, until the fan clears the radiator. Might that get you the clearance you need on the pulley? _______|FAN| _____ _____| |_____ | | | FAN | Present proposed (this would make much more sense if I could put real sketches on here.)
Do you have a 4-hole spacer between the sniper and the manifold? I have read that several applications have that have a "strange" sound from the Sniper, and a 4-hole removes it.
Yea I've read that too. I am going to add a 1 inch four hole when I finish my sniper install. also add the progressive linkage. But man, I don't think that's injector or the four hole. That sounds flex plate to me.
Loved the wardrobe choice in the first part of the vid lol. Only a few dozen perfect women out there and Aaron's got one of them. She's got it all, brains, brawn, looks, a great smile and always a great attitude. Get a mechanics stethoscope. Very cheap but helps to easily pin down odd noises.
Hi Emily and Aaron "FOG-DUCKER" here, be careful not to get the letters mixed up Just found you guys, and have been trying to catch up with F.S.G. as well as Aaron's T.W.T. videos. You guys have it all 3 of my favorite things....General Aircraft/Road Vehicles/and Hot Rod Builds, just heaven. Live in the pacific northwest, in Canada on Vancouver Island, British Columbia in a small town (Sooke) not unlike your Texas home. Have relatives about 90 km (oops, sorry 50 miles) 1 hour east on you guys they live in Tyler TX. Small world this internet thing, enjoy what I have watched to-date and look forward to seeing more. Retired now but have done a lot of what you guys are experiencing now, like monkey wrenching on hot rods, flying, and Trucking. Keep up the good work.....and in this uncertain times, until next time...."BE CALM BE KIND BE SAFE".
If you have a PCV in it, that might be the source of your noise. I also had the problem with the clearance with the AC pulley ended up with high flow fan PN 18217 from JEGS it is only 2 5/8" deep.
Thank you for your videos! This is giving me more motivation to get my '77 Bronco back together. It should be back on the road in a couple of weeks. Keep the videos coming!
Awesome video guys, Betty is looking fantastic. and so are you Emily. love watching the two of you trouble shoot and solving the problems. very informative, Your episodes are a learning tool for everyone. Looking forward to seeing Roxy back on the Drag strip. Love your channel, God bless the two of you.
@Flying Sparks Garage with regards to the noise. grab a stethoscope and put it to the injectors and see if the noise is coming from there. Old Mechanics trick.
My steering shaft was flared also. I cut it parallel to the spline with a sawzall. to get the piece off, then snipped the end of the shaft to get the new u joint on it.
I tried to use an electric fan on my 302 Bronco and had the same clearance issue, so I gave up and went with a normal fan. Didn’t know about the 2” lift deal, which mine has also.
One more very important ideam your missing if your doing a pardee of pinups...... sun glasses. a tub top, daisy mays, Mary Janes (heels) a big tool "wrench" in your hand and a catchphrase like "I love holding a big hard tool in my hand." LOL
New here. Great channel. Did see an issue though. The trans dipstick needs to be mounted to the engine. It could pull out under heavy rotational load. Could be amplifying some of the noise also.🦅🇺🇸✌️
Hey guys; love the channel. But where are the seat belts? If you have lap belts I didn't see them. About the noise. You'll probably have it sorted by the time you see this. Many years ago an elderly mechanic who looked after my 1933 MG J Type tracked down a new noise that was feint by using a wooden 'listening stick'. One end pressed to the ear, the other pressed on various bits of the engine. He diagnosed a slack bolt on the big end caps of cylinder no. two. And he was exactly right. We dropped the oil pan and found the slack bolt as predicted. It became a trick I used a lot after that.
the Bronco looks great, glad to see you got her back on the road again. the sound, sounds like it constant. doesn't change with speed or Rpm's could just be the audio wasn't picking it up also. that's where i would start looking, does it get faster or louder when you run the engine up? oddly enough i had a dang heater blower motor make a sound like that many years back.
Every time Emily said shaft in this video i took a drink of light beer.. Now i can hardly walk and am typing one handed.. Awesome content as always... Keep it coming....
Know if you're going to do a diesel or gas swap??? I prefer a diesel personally, but I'd love to see someone do a 8.1L/496ci swap... Enjoy your channel & the new stuff with PEAK
The next thing you guys need is a second hydraulic lift if your garage floor will support it! That Bronco is really lookin' AWESOME! EMILY, NEXT TIME YOU TALK TO DEREK CHECK OUT HIS HYDRAULIC LIFT.
You all are most likely aware of this but at some point you will need to have a fan shroud on Betty as the shroud is an integral part of the cooling system.
Change that flexplate ASAP or harmonics will kill that engine and make sure you have a harmonic balancer for the H.O. The non H.O. 302 uses a 28 Oz imbalance whereas an H.O. 302 and 351 windsor use a 50 Oz imbalance . Imbalance+harmonics=very short engine life span. Been there.
Emily... if you're a Doofus, you're the prettiest Doofus on the internet... or anywhere else for that matter! 😊 I love the videos you two put out, even when your project involves a FORD product! 🤣
It is so nice to see a married couple working together on something they love! Most men only dream of having their wife passionate about something they love!!! You guys rock and looking forward to each video!
Maybe one day you do one on how you met and what you do for fun when not wrenching!
Really enjoy the working relationship between you two. All of the smiling helps too. Nice Bronco!

Even though I’m a life long Chevy fan, I’ve always had a secret crush on those old Broncos. Good video.
I agree Tom, I'm strictly Chevy, but them Old Bronco's are really Cool.
They are both blessed and so am I cause they share their garage with us!! And yeah, she is awesome!
You both have delivered another first class video ticket, I'll always fly with you. Thanks for sharing this electrifying video with us that watch your channel. Outstanding job. Always love a garage girl fixing things. Such a joy.
Aaron is a lucky man, and I'm not talking about the Bronco.
Dude i know, he has an airplane too... #goals
luck of the Irish lol
And a Datsun?
He clearly hit the lotto in the wife department.
Come on man, the guy is a Douche Bag she is way out of his league

And the injectors on that efi system are quite loud.
Careful, that flex fan will flex foreword during high rpm and contact your nice new radiator. That makes a big hole!

Bronco is awesome. Sometimes those noises go away if you take it off road! Good information on getting the pressures right.
Where you guys been? It’s been awhile since I’ve seen anything from you guys. Glad to see you back.
One thing to think about when having the clearance so close is frame twist when rock crawling. A little flex and the fan goes right into the radiator. Used to be a common problem when upgrading the broncos to the 351 Windsor.
Love that Betty is running, you guys will work the bugs out. And we will enjoy the journey with you, stay safe.😷

It always very satisfying when a long term project gets mobile again. Great to watch. Enjoy.
Vice Grip Garage never sends a guy down the wrong path. I just spent the morning watching a few videos and I am here to stay. Good content 👍
[ Brian ] that means a lot!! Thanks!!!

It's easy to see how you keep so fit! Not scared to get dirty! Keep it up! you're doing great!
Great family vid, nice to see you little brother helping you Emily

I caught your joke Aaron, and I laughed! "I bet it's three times the power. It's probably up to 200 now." Well played!
Is there a drinking game called: How many times will Emily change her shirt? I love the Bronco so much!
Well she was about to fall out the first one and youtube would have thrown a fit over that lol..
If that game includes the intro, light weight drinkers are screwed 😅
The Bronco looks excellent, good work. I dig the positive attitude you two bring to the show.

Put the fan on the inside of the shroud and use additional spacers to get the fan closer to the rad.
@@dicknijenhuis9894 Exactly.
Or put two small fans on the other side of the Rad there is a ton of room upfront on the other side?
@@scottkailey1 That would work even better.
@@scottkailey1: Two fans, one on each side of the protruding pulley would also work nicely. Maybe even better than a single big fan.

It was cool to hear you mention Larry @Gearstar. He built my 4l65e in my Nova and did an amazing job.
That’s AWESOME! Larry is so great.
Awesome video guys, Betty is looking fantastic. and so are you Emily. love watching the two of you trouble shoot and solving the problems. very informative, Your episodes are a learning tool for everyone. Looking forward to seeing Roxy back on the Drag strip. Love your channel, God bless the two of you.
Super excited for race weeek 2.0 plus that bronco is pretty sweet
Emily, some of the chatter could be your tires, if you only hear it when the jeep is in motion try leaning your head out while you drive it.
Aaron: do we really need a fan!? Seems like a luxury, Funny funny. Love this couple. Get it
Use a long extension as a stethoscope. Press it to your ear and poke around until you find the loudest noise.
GOOD JOB on the BRONCO guys they are 1 of best OFF ROAD TRUCK
@Flying Sparks Garage with regards to the noise. grab a stethoscope and put it to the injectors and see if the noise is coming from there. Old Mechanics trick.
Good to see you back in the shop.Bronco looks awesome.
Woow, the Bronco looks really great! You did a good job. Yes, one of the best hobbies.
yes its the fuel injection, i have the same sound from mine
My steering shaft was flared also. I cut it parallel to the spline with a sawzall. to get the piece off, then snipped the end of the shaft to get the new u joint on it.
I tried to use an electric fan on my 302 Bronco and had the same clearance issue, so I gave up and went with a normal fan. Didn’t know about the 2” lift deal, which mine has also.
Glad I found you on RUclips. I liked your show on tv but can’t find it anymore.
Great job! Wish my Bronco was that far along. Some day...
Love how y'all keep it real with mistakes and bloopers
Glad to see y’all back on the Bronco. I am working on a 92 Jeep YJ also my daily driver so slow going lol
Awesome, I’m with everyone else, flip the fan on the inside of shroud! Looks great!
One more very important ideam your missing if your doing a pardee of pinups...... sun glasses. a tub top, daisy mays, Mary Janes (heels) a big tool "wrench" in your hand and a catchphrase like "I love holding a big hard tool in my hand." LOL
New here. Great channel.
Did see an issue though. The trans dipstick needs to be mounted to the engine. It could pull out under heavy rotational load. Could be amplifying some of the noise also.🦅🇺🇸✌️
Hey guys; love the channel. But where are the seat belts? If you have lap belts I didn't see them. About the noise. You'll probably have it sorted by the time you see this. Many years ago an elderly mechanic who looked after my 1933 MG J Type tracked down a new noise that was feint by using a wooden 'listening stick'.

We dropped the oil pan and found the slack bolt as predicted. It became a trick I used a lot after that.
It sounded like a fan hitting the edge of something. I'm hearingly challenged though... Another great video, thanks.
I was hanging out waiting for the next episode!
Awesome to see your usual humour and banter Emily and Aaron lol
the Bronco looks great, glad to see you got her back on the road again. the sound, sounds like it constant. doesn't change with speed or Rpm's could just be the audio wasn't picking it up also. that's where i would start looking, does it get faster or louder when you run the engine up? oddly enough i had a dang heater blower motor make a sound like that many years back.
Every time Emily said shaft in this video i took a drink of light beer.. Now i can hardly walk and am typing one handed.. Awesome content as always... Keep it coming....
I'm in love with this Bronco!!!
Take inspection plate off make sure bolts are tight and not hitting flex plate
Y’all are awesome 😎. I just figured out the town you’re from. My parents both have siblings near there.
Hi Emily, I'm a new sub, you have turned Mechanics into something beautiful to watch and entertaining 👍
Great video, like to see how y’all get projects done,work together well. Keep the video’s coming.
had a 66 in 1972 and a 77 in 1989 loved them both....could you take it out of gear And turn it off then see if the noise goes or stays?
Nice Bronco.... love it I am getting the new one hope to get it soon. Love that old Bronco 😊
Great job on the Bronco! I’m sure you’ll put shoulder belts in it soon.
finley looks great after all the relaxing time on the boat HA ! the bronco is cool as heck !
Looks sparkly, great work you two
So cool to see her driving!! Looks great!
What ever happened to the COE that was on a family members property? Glad to see the Bronco moving.
We need to go get it!!!!
Know if you're going to do a diesel or gas swap??? I prefer a diesel personally, but I'd love to see someone do a 8.1L/496ci swap... Enjoy your channel & the new stuff with PEAK
