i wasn't refering to the burning oil prob i was talking about the stumble.:salute:

dude before you go changing the motor buy some new plug wires i had a siular prob and that was my fix.:thumbsup::salute:

if your in there already you should have a good hard look at your timing chain. and concider changing it. if its original its probably quite worn and if you change it now while it's exposed then you will be good for a good long while. good luck:D:salute:

listen bud , my opinion is scrap those auto hubs and go manual!!!!!! ive had auto's for years and like most didn't have a problem with them till i really needed them. then when i had enough of getting towed out of places couse the dam hubs wont lock in !!!.... i went to manual and haven't...

so here is the update i did a voltage check on the dpfe and it failed so i replaced it and still no change so i went back to the start and pretended like i had done nothing at all. i started with the plugs and they were dirty but ok so on i went to the wires i pulled them one at a time and...

code 998 is a failure code it means the ecm is running the engine under a minamal operations failure program but don't worry this is what it's suposed to do when the ecm gets a fault code from a major sensore like a maf or o2 sensor. if it shows a 157 then its your maf. cleaning it may only...

ok so i put in the new maf sensor and erased all the codes then let it run for a minute and ran all the codes again and this time it pulled a 137 . now its the god dam o2 sensor so off i go to the parts store again (they know me there by name now) so i put in the two o2 sensors at $80 each and...

so i saw in my canadian tire flyer this week that code pullers are on sale so i went and had a look and found the one for my truck (obd-1 ford code puller) it was only $50 (around $75 at the shop to have it scanned) so i picked one up and pulled the codes finally. guess what code came up...

ok i just did this too! first you need to buy the auto to manual hub conversion kit at your local parts store its made by warn. then either buy new or track down a set of manual hubs at your local auto wrecker. then follow the instructions in the conversion kit to remove auto hub assembly and...

yes im sure . there is no marks on or around the hole where the socket should be. there is a hole and the spot on the dash does say chek engine but no light or socket or even wires. Im still trying to confirm if it was tampered with or not. i can't get a strait answer from ford yet but i will...

so i went to my buddies and learned a few things. one important one was that my 94 explorer has no check engine light(what the f@*k). after thinking there might be a problem with the light itself i pulled the gauge cover and checked to find not only was there no bulb, but no conection at all, no...

they all laughed at my 94 ex at the shop but.... when i had the same problem i looked at most of the same options that you talked about and one you didn't. I bought a cherry bomb glass pack. When i went to the muffler shop to have it put on they all laughed at me . i left the cat on for...

transfer case shift motor not working if you are hearing the relay box trying to shift then the transfer case shift motor might be burnt out. its under the drivers door and is mounted to your transfer case. it looks like a larger windshield wiper motor and is realy easy to replace it has three...

a lot of trouble for not??? all i do to change that b#tch is use a hex head spark plug socket (most of them are like that anyway) then use a wrench to turn it and break it loose, then turn it by hand( only a few turns), remove the socket, turn plug by hand until it comes out. then reverse...
