That is a pretty old bronco. It could be all sorts of things. Have you done anything to it? Has the previous owner? I'm not aware of a common running issue to all broncos back then.

Hey guys, i have a 1985 Bronco II, 2.8L, XLT. There is a hose that is missing from the side of my air filter housing that leads to the front of the vehicle. I have searched high and low for this replacement hose. I think my biggest problem is that I do not know what the part is actually called. Does anyone know what this part would be called? Thanks, upfront, for the help. 5 Answers
