    Question on a possible new truck?

    basicly a sport trac is a explorer with about 4 extra feet of frame. the drive trains and engines are damn near if not exact matches to explorers of the same years. As such they all have that odd leak between the tranny and engine. mine has a small leak i cant seem to beat on the...

    Idle question

    spark plugs, wires, fuel filter beyond that the most common gremlin is a vaccum leak all are easy cheap fixes and should be done ever so often anyways. i know the manual says plugs every 100k, but really im old school 25-50 would be alot. if at 25 they still look good i just give em a...

    Best front Brake Pads?

    ok heres my 2 cents. midas, monroe and many of the commercialized brake shops offer lifetime pads. they are like 80$ and i dont know the specifics of the warranty but stopping a trailer is still stopping in my opinion, albeit a little more painful on the pads. also, if you are towing...

    rear window woes

    i just poked my head in under that kick panel, all of the grounds look pretty clean and corrosion free. couldnt get but a 1/4 turn on the bolts. didnt fix the issue.

    rear window woes

    thanks, i will take a look, but how would a bad ground make it not work outside of doing the reset procedure? it works pretty much normal during the reset then bang, nothing.

    Which grille guard/push bar should i buy??? !!NEED OPINIONS!!

    ive had #1 on most of my trucks, F150, explorer(94), and ranger. my ST is the only truck i think would look right with #2 installed. the full brushguard is nice, but i would easily say a bull bar (#2) will look nice on a st.

    Truck stalls at low RPM, bogs down when gas applied

    another gremlin for this type of behavior is the mass air flow sensor. just spraying the sensor with a couple shots of electric parts cleaner(DO NOT USE CARB CLEANER!!!!!) usually does the trick. careful though its about as fragile as a light bulb so hold the can like a foot away when you...

    Tire Pressure

    i run what it says on the side of the tire...you cant go wrong with that. if it says 35 run 35, if it says 50 run 50. Unless of course your in sand, crawling rocks or sloppy mud, then adjust accordingly.

    my rear window has been attacked by gremlins...

    my rear window has been attacked by gremlins...

    well the dealer ship gave me the run around and will now NOT be covering this. i'll be picking up the tab. would a used motor be a wise idea here? i may run into the same issue day after i install it or never. what all is involved in removing the motor? i was back there this morning...
