    Will This Door Lock Actuator Work?

    Just go to Oreilly's website and check it there. They have a tab on the product page that tells what all the parts are compatible w/. Dont see why it wouldn't thou. I used one from a 98 Ford Taurus on the rear doors of my 00 Explorer cause that was all I had at the moment.

    The other night coming home from diner mine started making a funny noise when I mashed down on the gas pedal to get ahead of a car going slow on the interstate. It started having a whistle. Cross between am exhaust leak and vacuum leak. Got home and one of the hoses from the EGR pipe to DPFE...

    Explorer 5R55E trans

    Most of the jubk yards around me here have a 30 day gaurantee but I hate to put it in to find out its bad. Ive been checking car-parts.com but some of their used prices are just as high as rebuilt or new or way to many miles. I think some of the warranties are only 30 days or so. Automotix...

    Fuel Pump Relay Switch Location on a 98 5.0?

    Unplug the switch and see if you are getting continuity through it. You can also use a jumper wire to see if that helps or not in the place of the inertia switch. Had a Bronco II that a buddy of mine bought cause the guy couldnt figure why it wasnt starting and already replaced both fuel pumps...

    Explorer 5R55E trans

    Ok I am sure someone here will know the answer or correct if I am wrong. I am looking at getting a used trans from a junkyard to have as a backup so when mine goes out I can have a fairly quick turnaround on getting it back on the road. Its a 2000 Ford Explorer w/ the OHV motor. I have...

    EEC-IV Codes Help Please?

    You can take it into Advance Auto and get them to read the codes. They have the adapter to check OBDI. I took my 89 GT 5.0 in to get them to read the codes and they did.

    mysterious wire harness

    The owners manual shows where all the switches and such is. Would be easier if you had a pic and or reference to show where it is kinda suppose to be. I know the fog lights and rear wiper is on the right of the radio controls but by what you are saying it is on the left closer to the instrument...

    mysterious wire harness

    Fog lights don't come on with parking lights??

    I think there was a write up on one of the mustang forums awhile back cause the sn95's were like that. The new edge were change to come on w/ the park lights if I recall correctly. The explorers may be the same way.

    intermittent cel

    Advance Auto has the adapters to test OBDI. I took my 89 5.0 GT in there and they pulled codes off of it. They dont like doing tht cause that means more work for them but they can do it and have the equipment to do it.

    1996 ford explorer v8 xlt

    Its the fuel rail. There is a shrader valve on it. Kinda like a valve stem on a tire. Check that and see if you have fuel when it is not cranking or when the key is turned. I was going to post up an attachment but cant for some reason.

    Fuel pump going out?

    Did the prob start before you changed the filter or after. I know it sounds crazy but did you put the filter on correctly?

    1996 ford explorer v8 xlt

    Are you getting fuel at the rail? Fuel cut off switch is bad? Why was the pump changed out in the first place. Doing the same thing or just wasnt working at all?

    1996 ford explorer v8 xlt

    If you paid him to do it at a discount or full price I would take it back and tell him to check the pump. If its bad you have a warranty on it. If he doesnt try to fix I would never let him/her work on my **** ever again. That is a sorry excuse for a mechanic. Even if you didnt pay him he...

    Flex-a-Lite Black Magic Extreme 180 Install

    Not trying to hijack or anything but the fans from a taurus works jsut as well if not better and alot cheaper too. Can find them relative easy at most junkyards. I had a set on one of my 5.0 stangs and it never ran hot. Think I got the fan for like 30 bucks.
