Yep sounds like a head gasket to me, do a radiator pressure check if it is
not leaking on the outside it is leaking on the inside = head gasket and do
not drive it or you will need a complete new engine.

Sounds like the head gasket to me also. I also had a bronco 2 and
had the same thing happen. I just put a new engine in it. Good luck that
2.9l is not a good engine at all. They have a bad tick to hem from
sticky lifters.
