Engine Mechanical problem
1985 Ford Bronco 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive 52,000 miles

ok, i took it to a shop for this problem a couple of weeks ago they replaced the starter and the solenoid and it worked for a day.new battery and key cylinder also. Now, whats goin on is when i go to turn the key, it keeps on crankin, even when i take the key out. right now if i go and connect the neg lead on the battery, it will do this, and it will spark also. i just tried. What else can this be? . its a bronco ll 2.8 v6... ran out of things to replace that i know of.

Did you change the key barrel (lock) .. or the actual ignition switch .. usually on ford it's the electrical switch that is bad ?
