    going crazy here

    Me again, Well, guys $1600.00 spent and I still have an explorer that loses RPM and dies only in reverse. Does anyone have a clue as to what this could be? Would an IAC valve be the problem? Help!

    Explorer stalls when put in reverse

    Hey All, Last week my EX dies while backing out of a parking lot, nothing major I thought. Now it dies everytime I put it in reverse. I took it to a ford dealer and they say replace torque convertor and overhaul transmission. I thought I would notice some slipping if this was the...
