Engine & Transmission Fluid by MACJAC
OOPS! I put Auto. Transmission Fluid (1 qt.) by mistake in my engine. I drained all the oid from the drain pan and then added 4 qt.'s of Motor Oil BEFORE starting it, though. Should the engine be o.k. or should I take it in and have the oil changed at a lube place?

Are Tensioners redesigned from Ford? by Jeff
The Chain tensioner on my 97 SOHC motor protrudes from the head about 2 inches. The factory catalogs make them look like they mount flush to the motor? Can someone enlighten me? Thanks!

I left my 2002 Explorer outdoors during a recent hard freeze. I noticed that during that cold snap (freezing temperatures) my 4WD would not engage. I was hoping that once the temperatures warmed up the problem would go away, but it has not. Ever since that day I have not been able to engage my...

What's the black cylinder on the OHC V6? by Jeff
Facing the motor, back left coming out of the cylinder head. You can't see it very well except from under the car. It appears to be leaking oil. It has a hex pattern at the base for a wrench, but what is it? Thanks! Jeff

will not idle when first started, motor dies. 1998 Sport SOHC 4 by Cosmo
The motor starts but dies if you do not hold the gas petal down. This has happened twice in about 5 weeks. I can get the car to start and run normal if I start the car and hold down the petal so the engine is running 1500 to 2000 RPM. After a moment of running the engine above idle the engine will...

95 Ford explorer- 110K repl fuel pump by jglvsinit
Fuel pump will work if you tap on fuel tank with rubber mallet or 2x4.Switching relays out will help at time for no start. Anyone know if you have to drop the tank on an EB or is there an access panel under the back seat/cargo area?
