    transmission cooler/temp question

    I had a thought today, and thought I'd run it by anyone interested. My transmission runs consistently between 100-150deg, while my engine runs consistently around 195-200deg, especially in summer. If I am running colder transmission fluid through my transmission 'cooler' tank on the...

    low speed shudder/vibration

    I have two vibration problems that have been a nuisance for years, that I've never been able to pin down. I've always had the 5.5 superlift on it, so I can't compare to stock, but this problem has happened throughout the rest of my modifications and maintenance, like jd extended arms and a...

    Accel Fuel Injectors and chip

    I am curious whether or not anyone here runs or has run accel fuel injectors on a 1st gen explorer 4.0. I ask to see if they run well first, and also to see what lb/hr rating was used. I am under the impression that stock is 19 lb/hr, but the accel catalogs list a 21 lb/hr as stock...

    Rough Idle on hot restart, Low MPG, Fuel Pressure Problems?

    Here's my situation, hopefully someone can help, since reading the 120 posts in my search here didn't get me any closer. my 92 with 160k has had an intermittent problem with idling for the first minute or two after its warmed up for quite awhile now, and was getting about 3-4 mpg less than...

    Idle rough on hot restart

    Does anyone have any ideas on this? After my 92 Ex is warmed up and I shut it off, if I start it back up when it's still warm, it idles really bad, surging all around and stuff. I don't get any computer codes, and otherwise it runs fine, no real missing or anything. I can't figure this one out.

    Runs cold, but overheats....what gives??

    So here's a new one on me, that I haven't been able to pin down. My 92 Ex 4wd AT has an aftermarket electric fan, new radiator, all new hoses, new rad. cap, new coolant sensor, etc. I replaced the new 195 deg. thermostat I installed with all that stuff once already, just to be sure, and I also...

    Explorer doesn't shutoff after the key is out!

    Anybody had this happen to them? 1st gen 92 explorer, when I turn the key to turn the car off, the car stays running, the guages still read for about 3-5 sec., then the car dies. I can take the key completely out of the ignition, and the car will still run for a little, then shut off. The...

    stock tcase w/ bw1350

    Wondering if its possible to 'add' in a tcase out of a 85 bII (i think bw1350) and double them up, without using someone's (expensive) doubling kit. I think the main issue I'm having is the technical details of it. If I just mate the 2nd tcase after the first, will I just have to index it so I...

    lazy man's less expensive tcase motor fix

    I just found out that A1 Cardone now remanufactures tcase motors, and has listings for explorers through 2001. Most auto parts stores/counterguys don't know about these, but anyplace that can get A1C stuff should be able to get these. Application Part No: 91-94...

    Rearend clunk-pinion moves up and down?!

    Hey everybody, got something I just can't figure out. From a stop to takeoff, I get a big clunk from the rearend. Happens when I come to a complete stop too. I look under while the lady drives, and I see the rearend pivot and the pinion will shift up and down. When I first got my lift...

    manual tcase swap

    I've done my fair share of searches, but I can't find much info on the topic. I've got a parted out 85 BII with the manual shift tcase, I'm not sure which model even, but I'd like to get rid of the electronic shift in my 92 Ex. I would appreciate any info on the swap, ex. bolt patterns...

    help on a frontend vibration when it shifts to 2nd

    Here's a weird problem. Whenever I first get goin, and the trans shifts into 2nd, if i'm not on the gas too much or let off completely, I can feel the front end dip down a bit, and I get this really loud vibration noise, and I can't tell where its comin from. All my frontend parts are tight...
