- 95 Explo XLT v6
Ya know,
My family gave me this 95 explorer xlt, I was super excited but I could use some advice and some links.
My first problem is that there is a kill switch on my engine because my key only comes out in accessory. I had a mechanic take a look at it and he wants to replace my steering rod and put this kill switch in place till then. I'd prefer to fix it myself but nothing I've found has given me good information on if I can just replace the ignition switch or if I need to replace the entire column. From what we've noticed, the (rod?) is too short.
If anyone has dealt with this before I'd love some guidance.
My truck has also had two distinct problems since day 1: a check engine light and a two leaks. One is a coolant leak, but I replaced my radiator and my lower hose to no avail. The other leak I think is oil but I am not sure. More on that later.
My goal: get the 4 wheel drive working and back windshield wiper working. Get the leaks not leaking and the check engine light off. Replace the steering column.
Thanks.
