    NO heat and temp gauge not moving

    ok so I finally had the time to pull the codes. KOEO 157 186 332 KOER 111 I replaced the DPFE a ~2 months ago because of a 332 code and it went away so I know how to do that one.... but the other two I'm not so sure. I am going to clean the MAF tomorrow and see if that does anything. Do...

    NO heat and temp gauge not moving

    yeah it is quite nice having heat again! Now I just need to figure out why after fixing this my truck wont go into overdrive and what my sporadic CEL is all about. Do first gens store trouble codes or do they only show while the condition is happening? On my 10 minute drive to work the CEL would...

    NO heat and temp gauge not moving

    Ok so I have been looking around on here for a while with not much luck finding what I need. My 94 Ex suddenly has not much heat blowing out. The air does come out where its suppose to (defrost, vent, floor) but its lukewarm at best. Now the temp gauge has never really worked, the highest I've...

    Thermostat change 94 Explorer

    I wish i was as lucky! I was just trying to do mine and I cant seem to get a socket on the 2 and 11 o'clock ones. I tried a deep well, a 3 in ext. normal short socket and every combo possible.. I helped a friend do it on his 93 and it went pretty smoothly then. It seems as though the a/c line...

    Vacuum line question

    Can anyone tell me where this vacuum line is supposed to go? It comes out from under the throttle body and goes straight out towards the drivers side. It has a 90 degree down turn on it and then it ends right behind the black tank that sits behind the washer fluid/antifreeze reservoirs. It is a...

    transmission does not engage when cold

    Mine did the exact same thing! I would check the fluid and it would be a little low so I would add some and it would help alot and sometimes even make it go away for a while but a week or two later it would start doing it again.... I replaced the Vacuum Modulator on the tranny and haven't had a...

    strange problem - feels like E-brake is on in reverse only

    Mine did the same thing the other day when I was testing out my 4x4 before winter. When I was backing up to unlock the hubs it felt like the E-brake was on. after the hubs unlocked it was fine..I don't think that this really helps but maybe it will give someone an idea of something to check.

    Carbed 302 into 94?

    if you do this PLEASE take a lot of pics of putting the new motor in. I'm thinking about doing this swap (carb'd 302) and I'm not too mechanically inclined. But if its pretty straight forward I might give it a try to get rid of the horrible a4ld.......what part of ohio are you in?

    tranmission issue

    yeap mine is having this issue as well mostly when its been sitting for a few hours. Once it warms up it stops doing it. I changed the filter and that helped for a little while but didn't cure it.

    Goodyear Wrangler Radials

    Very wierd prob; truck won't start now, HELP!

    have you tried to restart it with the remote start? It happened to me once on a 00 f250 and the only way it would restart was with the keyfob after the theft deterrent was activated to reset it
