Hello again all, this just started and it is intermittent. At Idle I hear a sound every once in while, it is not consistent or constant. It sounds like a wood block being struck (as in a block of hard wood used in an orchestra with a particular pitch to it). It is very faint when it does...

Does anyone make a gear set to replace the timeing chain and tensioners on the SOHC engine? I remember when I had my K1500 Chevy Truck you could get gear sets to replace the timeing belt. They added a lot of sound to the engine but they didn't break. Just a curiosity question. David

Hello all, here is question #2. I have an intermittent grinding sound coming from the front end of my Explorer (2000 XLT). It happens only when I brake at slow speeds, but only sometimes. It sounds just like a worn out brake pad getting into the rotor but I have replaced the pads twice...

My passenger side front window will not roll up, I am looking for detailed instructions, I believe there are 3 bolts holding the motor in place. 2 of the screws can be removed through hole in the panel. if I remove those 2 the motor "loosens" so there must be at least a 3rd screw. the bad part...
