Well I was finally able to shoot a video showing in detail just how I replace these troublesome manifolds with all my tips and tricks I have learned throughout the years. I have also linked to all the tools and parts you will need to get the job done in the video description. I sure hope this...

Many of you already know me on the boards here sharing my wealth of information working in the dealership world. I have recently separated from the Ford dealer and have gone out on my own. I am planning a trip across America this June fixing Fords that are broke down for those people in need...

Here is my latest video on the Ecoboost Engines and carbon buildup. I quickly sum up what I was trying to say in my popular video- New Warning to All Ecoboost Owners. I go over what we are seeing at the dealers and what you can do to prevent any excess buildup of carbon as well as the latest...

While there are a few common cause for these codes on the vehicles ( I have a few videos on this already) this one is commonly overlooked as a potential cause of a rough idle, rolling idle and of course the lean codes P0171 P0174. Besides the quick fix in this video I show you how the pcm reacts...

Here it is the long awaited rear wheel bearing replacement video. I think this one turned out well. In this video I walk you through the replacement procedure with tips and tricks learned throughout the years to make the job go smoother. At any rate if you live anywhere in the salt belt of...

While this should be a non issue it is happening to allot of these, many with only 20k miles on them. What is happening is the rear caliper bracket is rusting so bad it wedges the pad and they never release and drag the whole time you are driving. If you have even low miles on your explorer I...

I actually got allot of request for this video to be done and I think it turned out well. As it turned out many are unsure of the whole filter setup inside. I go over the fluid and filter change with all my tips along the way. The setup is the same for any 6R60 or 6R80 transmission found in many...

Been ultra busy over at my channel and haven't gotten on the boards much but wanted to get some of the key what I think are the most helpful videos out to those that still aren't subscribed. This is a video I have been wanting to do for awhile and is a very common failure for these two concerns...

We have been hit with allot of these lately where there is a quite noticeable clicking noise only on turns. Some of these were even out of warranty already and figured there is likely many more of you out there dealing with this noise thinking you have a worn half shaft from a quick internet...

Many of you are having all kinds of issues with your My Touch systems, and also many of you do not know about the BIG update that came out in August of last year. We still get cars in for My Touch problems that do not have this update even 2014's, I don't know if people are just dealing with...

This is still a commonly misdiagnose as a belt chirp especially on the 3.8l mustang but can sound like a general engine bay noise in the Explorer 4.0L OHV and Taurus 3.0L OHV especially. So before replacing belts and pulleys take a look to make sure this is not the actual source of all that...

Common enough problem on this truck, I wanted to go over the electrical diagram on how to test it for yourself but it just didn't work out. Many people just live with this condition for years because they think it is something bigger. It actually is a very simple cheap fix, I show you how.

In this video I go over in detail the procedure to swap out the Cam Phaser to get rid of that annoying knocking noise at idle! It is easier than you think. The procedure is the same for all 4.6l and 5.4l 3valve engines.

In this video I go over some new information coming down the pipe from Ford.

Man oh man are these ever a pain in the neck. They are often the worst part of doing a radiator job on one of these. Even if you have the special tool to release them half the time it doesn't work either. They are truly quick connect fitting and not quick disconnect. In this video I illustrate...

Now is a good time to start checking over your vehicles before the warm weather sets in and more importantly before the summer family road trip season is in full swing. Radiator leaks on these trucks of the 2006-2010 model years can be hard to find they leak one day and are dry for weeks. In...

Well I got another cluster job this time on a 2004 so that will cover the 2002-2005's for reference for all that need it to get back in there and change out bulbs etc. These ones are much harder than the 2006+ Explorers so this video should come in handy.

Just wanted to pass this info along as some may be experiencing perceived weak batteries or just want to do the occasional checkup before a long road trip and bam you find the alternator is not charging, don't worry just yet here is why....

Many of these are coming in lately for different issues and of course light bulb replacement. There is no need to have someone charge an hour labor for bulb replacements when I show you just how easy it really is!

Now this has been discussed before and I have gotten many questions on just what is the best way to put on that tight Teflon seal on the power steering line without ruining it. I had one recently and decided to make a video on it to answer the question once and for all. This applies to almost...

This has been a common issue for years now but I just had one in the other day as they seem to be acting up again with the cold winter this year. While it is only 2 screws Ford went and locked them in there good with too much Loctite. So if you find yourself replacing one please watch my video...

I finally had another hub and bearing to replace and made a vastly superior video on the procedure and this one is 4x4 too so it is a home run on all accounts. Even if yours is not noisy now put this one in your bookmarks as it will help you breeze through replacement of it in the future. I...

While I know this is a simple task, I have to remember there are some who don't even like go as far as replacing the serpentine belt let alone change out the alternator. In this video I show you just how easy it is with a few tips. This applies to many if not all Ford models that have a 4.6l or...

I have gotten many question on this over time and wanted to address it once and for all. A failing trans range sensor is more common on some vehicles than others, rotted pins on F150s, climbing voltage on the CD4Es, to general bad contact issue internal to the sensor on the Taurus vehicles. They...

This engine noise is often misdiagnosed as an alternator or more commonly a power steering pump, a costly guess. In this video I show you how much it sounds like a power steering whine, how to test for it and then replace the faulty components. This affects the 4.6l and 5.4l in many different...
