    No dash lights. 01 Sport.

    Dimmer wheel makes no difference on dash, no lights on at all. This is the second Explorer in the family that had this same problem, figured having 2 do the same thing would mean its a common problem. Its something I can live with though. Thanks for the link for tge turn signal problem repair...

    No dash lights. 01 Sport.

    Did check the fuses, all were good. Have another electrical problem, driver rear brake light doesnt work and left rear signal only works intermittently. I put a different bulb in just to make sure the old bulbs filament was broken but close enough to touch ends once in a while. Its probably a...

My wife was taking art classes and in her jewelry making classes they make castings using a centrifuge that spun the mold causing the molten metal to be denser.

    Cracked T-stat housing

    The 4.6 had a very common problem of the plastic intake cracking and losing coolant out the crossover in the front of the engine. If its cracked theres a replacement intake with aluminum crossover to prevent cracking. They switched to an aluminum intake later.

    Swap to an explorer grille or fabricate the mountaineer grille. Could get an explorer grille and remove the Ford emblem and put a Mercury emblem in its place.

    blown headgasket upgrade or stock or not

    Go for it, why not get some more power while you have it apart. Good time to put in a better cam, springs, etc.. Your intake is the GT40 kit for Mustangs, can get by with the stocker and get good results with the better flowing cam. Exhaust headers would be a great way to make more power also...

    2000 Explorer Broken Door Handles

    No dash lights. 01 Sport.

    I have an 01 Sport with non functioning dash lights. I just got the truck last week. Havent had time to check fuses but from the few posts I found doing a search, other things should not be working as well when the fuse blows. The lights that are in the ac/heater controls dont work either. I did...
