Buying a 1997 Ford Explorer by sam
Hi all, I wanted to get your advice before buying a 183k miles 1997 Ford Explorer(Eddie Bauer). Can you suggest if this is a good idea? The truck is in a fair condition. What is a good guess on how long i can make it run without a major repair. Thanks a bunch for you advice. Sumanth Meka

Dash light question on 98 Explorer Sport by RedBArone
I just got the vehicle last week. So far, no problems except a fairly minor one. The controls on the Left side of the steering wheel (part of the cruise control?) and on the far left dash (Headlight switch) are not illuminated. Is there a fuse for this circuit separate from the rest of the dash...

1994 explorer auto hubs grinding by Happy Father
when i engage the 4x4 it works fine but i am concerned out the slight griding noise i hear and feel in the gas petal, is this normal? I assume with the 4x4 on i should experience a different feel in the gas peddle. It engages and disengages fine. The only other thing is when i turn over 1/2 way...

2003 Mountaineer V8 Tranny Fluid Change by D.D. Palmer
It's just not clear to me when the tranny needs to be flushed and how it's done and who can do it. Apparently it's now a sealed unit without a dipstick. The owner's manual is worthless...it says if you have THIS tranny (gives a code number), then change this often, if THAT tranny, than that often....

Headlight lenses by John Riggs
Anybody know how to remove and replace the headlight lenses on a '92 Ex? Mine seem to have a lot of water trapped behind them from the last time it rained. I need to get it out, dry, and find a way to seal it (silicone?) before the weather gets too nasty. I'd hate to have to wrestle rubber...
