Pics or it never happened. and pics of this “small” rock also.

Pull it into Manual, then use the +- button. Then watch the gauge cluster to see what gear it is in. You can also use the +- button in regular Drive, but in that mode it is taken as merely a light & momentary suggestion; it will revert to fully automatic Drive mode in a few moments.

When you think about it both engines have strong bottom ends for turbochargIng, and lightweight overhead cam valve train with small valves. So they can probably hold redline without concern - the Nano V6 having even smaller individual components than the I4? But this is all purely...

Perhaps the engine can sustain a higher RPM than we expect. I approach it with more of a bias towards brakes. I expect to use the brakes occasionally (such as approaching tight curves) - not constantly, not never - once every few minutes with plenty of cooling time in between.

It depends. On a lot of things - like your vehicle weight that day, rolling resistance of tires, axle ratio, incline, air density, ambient temperature, and the mood of your passengers. Trial and error (Or, guess & check). High enough to keep the engine from revving to death, low enough that you...

Ditto. Cheap. Effective. Easy.

Dang! Y’all didn’t waste any time getting in early on this Bronco 6G thing did you?!?

Why stop there? Go for starting in 3rd. It will be even smoother. Seriously though, this is the principle of the 2 speed Powerglide. Super smooth. Utilize the torque converter to full advantage.

i remember watching a video of a guy looking at Corvettes. He commented that every Corvette Is “rare, one of one” - in the eyes of its owner - and over priced, when really they’re not so much. 😂 I‘ll try to humbly remind myself of this if I still have my “rare, one of one” Bronco in 20 years.

Fact is that my Toyota Tacoma was hands down the least reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned. I bought it new and had a fat folder of problems & repairs when I sold it. 2 years later the next owner told me the engine grenaded on a road trip. (I had changed the oil religiously since it was the first...

@4WheelBugout your subject line says reliability but then you bring up noise. This is a convertible. Convertibles have noise; of course if weight & cost are no object (Mercedes cars) then it can be mitigated but “It is what it is” regarding Wranglers & Broncos. Also this thing is shaped like...

Nope. Find something else to worry about.

Some multifunction wiring connector has jiggled a little loose. They’ll find it, snap it securely in, and you’ll be back in business. (I had this happen on my Tacoma years ago)

I seem to remember a supplier of rocket fuel in the Palisades area of Southern California.

Did you find the supplement insert describing prerequisite installation of rocket fuel system? Complete those steps first. Also, you’ll need a source to procure rocket fuel. BTW, some who tried this complain of melted spare tire.

Wow! The last time I saw something even close to that was when an Accord wedged Into freeway traffic right in front of the city bus I was on… then immediately was rear ended by the bus when freeway traffic suddenly stopped.

Or radiator fluid, per the movie “Red Dawn”

Hot coffee. Black. No cream or sugar.

Oh my. UNIVERSAL. Ugg. I have a good friend with a Masters degree in Electrical Engineering and he flatly refuses such endeavors on automotive wiring. I agree. I doubt that you’ll have a good day getting this universal kit to work. I humbly suggest that you carefully remove it and start over...
