Ford BroncoUntil the mid '90s, the Ford Bronco was famous for being a rough-and-tumble off-road vehicle that had been tackling trails and fording streams since the 1960s. It was also one of the first sport-utility vehicles: a versatile truck then described by Ford as being able to serve as a family sedan, sports roadster, snowplow or farm and civil defense vehicle.
when you mean it won't start what other symptoms are you having....sorry man a little too vague on the explanation....Does it turn over and make a click or what?
If it starts by using starter fluid, then it sounds like you're not getting fuel up to the injectors; the fuel filter may be clogged, the fuel pump may be shot, or you might not be getting any current to the fuel pump. Follow the fuel lines and you'll find the filter. Get a new one, disconnect the old one, get a bottle to catch the gas, and have someone turn the key real quick. If you get a good shot of gas then the fuel pump is OK; replace the filter and you should be good to go. If no gas, then you may need to replace the pump.
Fill us in with more info.

I agree with Tim,
When you first turn the key to ON/Run, listen for the fuel pump to prime, if you don't hear it, check to make sure the inertia saftey switch is depressed.
Check fuses, and the fuel pump relay.
