I need to get an engine for my 2002 4.0 by 8th Vin is E. What's my options?

This is what happened with my 02 XLT & now might need a new engine. I was a idiot, I forgot I had only water in my radiator. It was about 10 degrees below zero with the wind! I started my truck (02 XLT 4.0 V6) and was waiting for the heat to come on. It never did so I just drove it about 5...

Think it might be o2 sensor or clogged cat?

Old post here but I have the same problem. I was a idiot, I forgot I had only water in my radiator. It was about 10 degrees below zero with the wind! I started my truck (02 XLT 4.0 V6) and was waiting for the heat to come on. It never did so I just drove it about 5 min down the road. Meanwhile...

Watch "Priming Timing Chain Tensioners 4 0 SOHC Engine" on YouTube I just saw this video cause im changing both my tensioners, 02 xlt. Figured I'd post that here for everyone.

I have a 2002 4.0 V6. I think I might have to pull mine & put in a donor. Any other helpful links out there?

I changed this on mine last year & it burnt out in about a week. Back to only working on number 4. Any suggestions as to what to do next? I believe all the fuses are OK.

I also have a squeak that recently is going on, I think it's because the change of weather with it getting colder. I'm going to change the serpentine belt cause it's about 5 years old then if it's still squeaking, I'll change the pully or the tensioner. I prefer to change the belt instead of...

855K6MK is the correct type!

They aren't that hard to change. The gear ratio sticker might still be attached to yours but if not there's a door code or just give the vin to the dealer & they can tell you which is the correct kind you have.

So what bulbs are you guys using besides the original? Definitely need to upgrade to a LED to get that bright.

What bulb are you guys using & anyone have any pics if they redid the plastic under the light?

I just signed up, I'll give it a look when they accept me. Thank you

I'm thinking of cutting the connections under the seat & putting new connectors there. That might be the fix instead of cleaning the connections & playing around with them espically when the new pretensioner is doing the same thing.

I've had the same problem for a while now. I disconnected the wires under the seat, sprayed them all & reconnected them. The light went out for a few minutes then came right back on. I got another pretensioner from another 02 explorer and same thing, the light comes on & doesn't go off!
