conundrum
outdoor parking
windshield wiper well is a leaf/snow deposit storage compartment
solution
pool noodle
sorry no pic
nice snug fit between windshield and edge of hood
day-glo color to prevent drive off with noodle in place
will let you know if it gets a pass or fail
updated android fordpass app
reads the same "not available right now"
most likely will place call to dealer to confirm recall status
newest entry in the ford/app/unreliable file
strictly town/county roads only averaging 30 - 45 mph
expressway travel verboten
too much stimulus overload resulting in excitotoxicity of the neurotransmitters
*tips straw hat way back on the head and contemplates life at 28.6 mpg
multiple use product
ground contact metal surfaces - lanterns, fuel cans, garden tool handles........
exposed to the elements - trailer ball hitches, trailer fender, mailbox..........
sharp metal edges - ford bronco engine compartment
apology for the delayed answer
recently found the removed section of hose
also with it a portion of the new hose material
old vent hose material - rubber 5/16" ID
new extension length +/- 4 feet of rubber 1/4" ID vacuum hose
point of connection was at the wheel well plastic 90 degree bend...
memory is straining - '22 installation
and as we all know strainers are full of holes
bolt head:
if angled at the just right positioning the bolt head will fit through the hole going in head first
now you have to manage to shove the entire bolt (and washer?) with the wire/spring puller in place...
