My 1996 Explorer XLT V8 AWD was stolen this past weekend and I am looking for a "newer" used, suitable, similar, replacement. It had 150K miles on it, ran great and never gave me any problems since I bought it used in 1998 with 59K miles on it. Since I liked this one so much, I am thinking I...

If the engine light is on, where can you go for a free check? Pepboy? The local dealer charged. $93 for a diagnotic check. Mike

I have a 1998 Ford Expedition with a 4.6 liter V8 engine. The check engine light came on as the vehicle started to misfire or hesitate. I took it to a local mechanic to have the problem checked out. He told me I need new plugs and wires. I went and purchased those items and installed them. This did...

I just got my explorer back last night, it was relatively undamaged, just some minor stuff, but it wont start, the steering column appears to be intact, isnt loose at all, I can put a key in the ignition, when I turn the key the battery and check engine light come on, but it will not even attempt...

I need to buy a ball receiver (draw bar) for my 02 Expolorer. The factory hitch uses the smaller 1 1/4 inch receiver size. Does anyone have a recommendation on a drop size? The guy at my local auto shop suggested that a 2 1/2 inch drop was the right one. However, I don't trust his opinion since...

Like many I have just purchased an 04 explorer and it didnt come with the combo to the key pad. I have ready on many different sites ways to find it, anyone actually know how to find it on the 04? Thanks in advance!

I put new hinge pins and bushings on the driver's door of my '94 XL. The door is nice and tight on the hinges now but doesn't latch quite right. How do I adjust this? Adjust at the latch or latch pin or do I adjust the hinge mounting bolts? Thanks.

1997 auto. 4x4 Transmission pulls fine, but when going down hill the transmission will "rev up" faster than the engine causing a whineeinf noise. I can give it more gas and the engine will catch up with it. any ideas what is wrong? Thanks Stan

I'm hoping somebody has seen this before. I was performing a 60K mile service on my 2002 4.6L Expedition automatic transmission-fluid, filter and gasket. The transmission is a 4R70W, which I believe is also used with the Explorer 4.6L V8, which is why I'm posting to this group. When I dropped the...

I have a 1994 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition. I recently put a tow hitch on it. In the process I found tucked under the rear bumper a wiring harness that lookes like it would be for a towing package ( lights, directional signals, etc.). It even as a plug on the end that lookes like it should...

I've got a '98 Ford Explorer Sport with the 4L SOHC V6 engine. Unfortunately, it's starting getting very sluggish when trying to start. One time it took me several minutes and several tries to get it to finally start. I don't believe it's the starter or the battery since it will crank like a son of...

your problem could be very serious. Worn engine and seals. No OIL pressure on startup. Overnight the engine oil drains down from the oilways into the sump. Worst is the timing chain tensioners are hydraulic (oil pressure needed). If this combines with a sticky idle control valve your engine will...
