    Possible Key Buzzer?

    Is there any way to put an old key buzzer from older Fords on a Explorer with a key dinger? It’s a 2000 if that matters and would like to do it if it’s possible because it sounds cool.

    Weak Fuel Pump?

    Just seen that other thread, didn’t see it at first but I’ll probably start with the filter since I already have it.

    Weak Fuel Pump?

    Yeah that’s true, it is 20 years old and almost 183,500. I remember my grandparents old one had a 99’ with 232k and the fuel pump was working good except it has a little whine to it. Do you think I should get the fuel pump assembly overhauled soon?

    Weak Fuel Pump?

    Are fuel pumps weak on the earlier Explorers? I believe the one on my dads is going out because I don’t hear it and I know when a pump is good, you should be able to hear it. Also sometimes when I turn the key twice to prime the pump it starts up the first time when other times when I don’t do...

    stock 01 explorer, issue with the tach needle bouncing ????

    My dads would jump up to 2,500-4,000 when it’s idling at the normal idle. Sometimes tapping it would bring it down to the normal range and would still be inaccurate. I do it sometimes when bored after the car is off. An answer would be nice lol, maybe I’ll be able to fix that.

    New addition, 2000 Explorer Limited

    Would you know the location of it by any chance, didn’t find a lot in the forums. Like I mentioned the brake light lit up on the way back from the test drive since the brake line was bad and ran low after getting back to the shop. So do you still think the parking brake circuit/switch is the...

    New addition, 2000 Explorer Limited

    My dads 05’ town and country with the 3.8 was wrecked and so I recommended him to buy an Explorer and I was looking for an Explorer with a 5.0 AWD but settled on a 2000 Explorer Limited 4.0 SOHC/AUTO 4x4 with 181k on the clock for $1,000. Needed a brake line and that has been replaced already...

    Update On Totaled Explorer in Accident

    Airbags didn't go off from what I was told. Also the airbag light been on before the accident and I think the memory was full on it from previous accident in the front. Never had airbags go off though. Just triggered sensors.

    Our Explorer Was Totaled in Severe Accident, Need Advice About Buying Another One...

    I really appreciate everyones time with their opinions and I've read all the comments that everyone posted. It sounds to me that the majority chose the V8 as the reliability and strong transmissions. Maybe gas is not the best but it seems like a good choice. So it seems that I should look for a...

    Our Explorer Was Totaled in Severe Accident, Need Advice About Buying Another One...

    Hello everyone, haven't been on here in about a month since I've been vacation with my dad. Anyways, I don't want to talk about what led up to what happened to my grandma when she was driving because I feel like I would get hate for it and blamed for something not my fault but possibly the...

    Smelling gas

    I know it's a bit of a pain to get to it, but if you can't find a leak elsewhere don't forget to check the pump assembly mounted into the top of the fuel tank. That has a big seal and if someone replaced the fuel pump it might be an issue. Hearing the fuel pump from outside the car is not all...
