    Troubles starting 96 4.0

    My 4.0 just decided, at random, today that it was gonna start becoming a bear to start. I've had absolutely no troubles starting the vehicle prior to this. When I turn over the engine itll kinda sputter start a few times and stall, and then eventually after pumping the gas a little and turning...

    no interior, or guage lights and no turn signals. help

    I lost all dash lights on my 96, and it wound up being a bad dimmer switch that was the culprit. I found one on ebay for like $15.

    ABS problems.

    I have been through this with my 96 Limited. Ultimately I wound up replacing the hubs up front. I would recommend that if you decide to go ahead and replace them to get them off of ebay. They are considerably cheaper online than at an auto parts store. To change them is very simple. Just...

    Need heat/blend door/actuator opinions!

    If the heat is fading like that, I would suggest checking to see if the heater core is plugged up. I've flushed them out by simply undoing both of the lines in the engine bay that lead to it and using the garden hose to clean it out. The pressure is usually enough to dislodge whatever may be...

    My 96 Limited hasnt had the ABS working for the past 4 months, was real frustrated with it after replacing both front hubs and the rear sensor with no avail. Then in light of the massive snow storm that just whooped up on Iowa, I discovered that my 4x4 wasnt working quite right. It would...

    1995 Explorer Limited 52K miles. It's losing power and spudders.

    ABS Light

    I have had my ABS light on for quite some time now... I have replaced both front hubs in the last year and a half, and just a month ago replaced the rear sensor. What is left that would trip the light? I hate the idea of paying Ford $100 to put the thing on a scanner. Any help is appreciated.

    Charging system light

    My charging system light has been on for like a week now. I put a brand new battery in it, not even two months ago. With the car running I read 14.66 volts across the cattery terminals with the multi-meter. Am I missing something? 1996 Explorer 4.0.

    On my 1996 Explorer 4.0. I have been staring at the check charging system light for the last few days now. I have a brand new battery in the car, and the voltage at the battery reads 14.66 while the car is running. Seems to me like everything is in order... Am I missing something?

    Heater trouble.

    where do I find this blend door? Im in a situation of no heat and both the lines going into and out of the heater core are getting plenty hot, so I know that there is not an issue with the core. This was a sudden happening a couple days ago. It was working just fine one day, and then the next...
