Sold the truck years ago. I lived in a very small apartment at the time against my lease to work on automobiles at it. I did do the oil and such but I'm small I crawled under there and did it without a jack. Everyones circumstances are different. But yeah I wouldn't buy from them their customer...

I've done this before when installing some tricky audio systems

So this is the second 2nd gen explorer I've had that I've had this issue with the same 06 codes and same rough idle. TID 10 CID 21 and TID 41 and CID 12. My google fu ins't the best. The dpfe sensor melted replaced that, EGR didn't seem to be working but a new EGR on it. I've used a smoke...

I used to have a Suzuki Samurai that made that same sound when the oversized tires rubbed on the homemade fender flares.

Got it on sale for 15 bucks or so wanted to compare it to the Castrol GTX I usually use. So far it seems to be running a little smoother...

I always do 5 quarts. This time around I tried the Amazon brand high mileage synthetic with Motorcraft filter.

I have used spectra products across a range of vehicles and have never had an issue with them

So I am working on the rear hatch on my 2000 and I am aware of the issue with the clip and the door handle, I assumed that was the issue as I tore it apart I installed the new one and it still does not open, I went as far as to directly use a zip tie between the handle and the lever and still...

I just picked up some hood shocks off amazon for 8 bucks

I would clean it with a grinder and get some heavy duty steel and weld it on. I did this to an old toyota pick up I inherited as a teen and it worked fine. As stated above you can get a frame for it that is not rusted through. I do not know how much this would cost at a shop.

You can always spray wd 40 in there and see if it helps (Don't actually do this)

Yeah, when I had my mounty I replaced the radio with an in-dash GPS radio unit. So I know the basics and I have to tear my dash apart to replace the odometer and parking shift cable. Was trying to get all the parts at once so I can do it in one go. I guess I will just wait till I have it all...

I have a 2000 explorer xls with the single cd. It works but no longer displays. I was looking to just grab an OEM one with a cassette player (since you can use those cassette AUX tapes) I like the look of stock and want to just plug and play but I have no idea if it is the Mach system or the...

Ignore that I didn't realize I was in the 3rd gen part of the forum.

I did a video on this a while back, not the best quality but should give an idea. Take off the passenger seat in the rear and it is right there

I've always had a good experience with spectra products on various vehicles

Unfortunatly I don't know much about the 3rd gen explorer. You should try asking in that section of the forum!

You can look up the specs of your vehicle on FordEtis home page with the Vin number. There should be a dipstick in the back of the engine bay on the passanger side

I believe the 5R55s was used on the later models 2002 and up. I may be mistaken but I am pretty sure that 2nd gen explorers have the 5R55E FORD "FOUR VERSIONS OF 5R55" - The Transmission Shop

I did the shift indicator on my mounty the little white bracket broke. I just figured it needed a new dash cluster for the Odometer. I did not know I could do individual parts on it. I will look into fixing the gears

Just bought an 00 explorer for 450 bucks. So glad to have one again. I am excited to get back into things Just needs some minor things like the doors need new handles hatch won't open other minor crap. Actually runs really really well. The odometer is out and the shift indicator is off to the...

I'd rather the V8 but I am in an apartment and they have already given me notices about my behavior that disturbs other residents (changing oil, replacing spark plugs, etc) It is in my lease that I am not allowed to work on cars here and I think they would notice me out there with a grinder...

Yeah there were other issues with at as well. The ac is out and needs new tires. Going to check it out saturday and another one that is 500 bucks but it is the V6 I liked my 6 fine just wanted a little more towing power but meh for 500 I'd be fine with it that one needs "a Hood latch has...

So as some of you know I'm in the market for new second-gen and I ran across this ad today and I just wonder what the heck was done to this car and how easy it would be to convert back. I spoke with the lady and she really has no clue, part of me wonders if she just didn't know the terminology...

Sounds like the fuel pump to me. You can always try changing your fuel filter and if that doesn't work then I'd say the pump is your next bet.
