- 96 Explorer XLT 4WD
My 1996 Explorer 4WD was right at the HC limit at 15 mph last time, even after replacing spark plugs and wires. This time I expect it to fail. The vehicle has 180k miles but it runs perfectly and burns no oil.
I'm thinking that reduced diameter tires (I currently have 33-inchers!) would help by increasing rpms, or maybe disabling overdrive would help.
Any ideas? Is it possible to disable overdrive so that the smog test person cannot switch it back on?
