- 1999 Explorer 4.0L 4X4
Hey all,
New to the forum here and got some issues.
My 1999 explorer 4.0L 4x4 auto has 172,000k on it. Just drove from Portland to Baker, Nevada and noticed a clunking, almost jerking thing. Its hard to describe but it doesn't feel like the motor is stalling, more like tranny or rear end? It only happens at higher speeds and above 2k RPM. It is not while shifting. It definitely seems worse while pulling hills or any time I put more load on the motor.
I have a check engine light but the code is P0174 which I hear is common on these motors and related to MAS or vacuum leaks and don't believe they are related, but maybe I'm wrong about that.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Kevin
