Hello, I have an 89 ford bronco II with a 2.9

Hello, I have an 89 ford bronco II with a 2.9 liter engine. My issue is brakes. The brakes seem to be "slow" to grab and hold. New master cyclinder. The brake pedal is firm. Fluid level is full, no apparent leaks. Brake light stays on along with ABS light. Any suggestions for a shade tree mechanic?

Could be that you have one or more brake lines rotting internally and plugging the line. Check for a soft spot in the brake lines.

The turn signals and brake lights use the same circuit and filament in the bulbs. The tail lights are on the other circuit which comes from the headlight switch.
Do you have power on the tail light fuse ?

Try replacing the Throttle Positioning Sensor
Have the codes checked
You may need to clean the Mass Air Flow Sensor
this is best done by a professional as it contains some very sensitive wires and they are easily broken
The MAF is very expensive to replace

The starter on my 86 bronco II flywheel issue

The solenoid on your starter is probably no good. Just get a new starter. Theres no starter that will "grab the teeth better", theres just new ones that work and old ones that **** out

What is the firing order for a 1984 ford bronco 2

1-4-2-5-3-6
Now you need to know which cylinder is which. If you stand at the front of the truck looking at the engine, the number 1 cylinder is on the left closest to you. The left bank has cylinders 1-3-5 and the right bank has 2-4-6. So number 1 is at the left front and number 6 is at the right rear.
