Can you tell what is wrong when my 1987 Ford Bronco with 73k miles is smoking heavily on acceleration? There is no water or coolant in the oil that I can tell.
I dont know why those other answers are assuming you have a diesel engine. Try a compression test to see if you have a broken or stuck ring on a piston. Also look at the carb to see if the choke if staying wide open.

the white smoke indicates that your getting oil in with the diesel and the oil is burning you might have a bad seal

I have an old IDI 6.9 diesel. They tend to burn oil, and that would be normal. Just keep a check on your fluids, and unless the smoke is excessive it should not be a problem. I must say though, I personally think the IDI's were the best diesels ever built. They last forever. If you really want to treat your truck to a nice treat, after you fill your tank, dump a quart of auto trans fluid in the fuel. The additives, cleaners,and lubricants in the trans fluid really help to clean all the carbon and build up out of the injection pump, and clean the gunk from the valves and cyllinders. I usually do it every other month or so.
SOURCE: rear window on my 1987 ford bronco will not work
This has several possiblilitys, it could be the switch in the dash has gone out even if it does not work with the key in the tailgate. other possible item could be the window motor or a sensor that detects if the gate is up or down. check motor wires for power when the switch is activated by pulling off the panel on the tailgate, if it is getting power i would suggest replacing the motor. if not you may have to trace wires to the drivers side of the tail gate and find the sensor.i had to by pass mine a while ago. makes it much easier to clean the glass on the inside cause the window will roll up with the gate down.
