    Front end squeaking

    So, I went ahead and replaced both wheel hubs, the squeaking went away for a couple of weeks, but now its back. Sometimes it goes away when you brake, sometimes it starts when you brake. It seems to be linked to turning the steering wheel left, and it is definitely "rotational". By that I...

    IAC gasket

    So, fiddling with the dying Explorer and replaced the PCV. No improvement. So I start back at square one and start looking at the vacuum line and IAC. I take off the block under the IAC that attaches to the manifold and give it a squirt with solvent and blow through it to make sure it's not...

    Engine whining and surging, and dying a lot

    What started out 6 months ago as a loud buzz is now a huge headache. We thought the truck was suffering from a bad IAC, but after 3 replacements I concluded that it must not be that (right?) Now, it the engine is surging at idle, the loud hum is still there, and it is dying all the time when...

    trip computer

    Please, no laughing

    but I can't for the life of me find my PCV valve. My chiltons and everything online says it's on the valve cover back by the brake booster, but it most definitely is not. In fact, the only port out of my valve cover is the one on the right side that goes directly to the intake between the MAF...

    Not my IAC

    So I have the infamous hum from my 1999, and yes I replaced the IAC. I have even returned the new IAC twice in the hopes that maybe I got a faulty one. I read on these forums that maybe the coolant temp sender might affect the IAC, so I replaced that as well. Now, if it was just humming I...
