    Scan Tool

    No, I have not used it yet on my 94 X. I have only used it on my 98 Dodge Ram with OBDII. On the Dodge I can read Rpm's, engine temp, O2 sensor values, Tps value, and a few other things. I don't think you can see live data on pre ODBII. Check out Actron.com for specks.

    2002 Escape Dealer service problem

    My sister just bought an 02 Escape with the 6 cylinder. In neutral if you blip the throttle to about 3 grand it stumbles. It sound like an exhaust leak and a misfire combined. The only reason I tried this was because it seamed to run rough under a WOT run. Now for the problem. She brought it...

    Does anything have experience in powdercoating?

    From what i've heard you have to use an electric oven or a heat lamp to cure it. Some guy's will use an old oven for this and keep in in the garage, just wheel it outside when needed.

    AutoZone shackles??

    I have also had them on for a few years. Got them at auto zone but they are not made by them. I think they are called universal lift shackles. Not the best pic but you get the idea.

    Anyone know boat engines?

    What about testing the contacts on the top of the crank? (don't know name)

    Anyone know boat engines?

    That’s the problem sometimes I get zapped and sometimes I don’t. We intermittently get no spark. Take a look at my previous post for more symptoms.

    Anyone know boat engines?

    Yes it is the V6, not sure of the year. I will have to check it out. We rebiult the carbs except for the floats. The linkage is not binding and the oil mix seams to be working. We have not replaced the fuel pump. How do you ck the coil packs?

    Anyone know boat engines?

    Coil pack, I think. Come to think of it it may be worse as it gets warmer. We have changed the thermostats.

    Anyone know boat engines?

    We are having two intermittent problems. One is no spark in two or more cylinders. The other may be a fuel problem. Initially we have it running well after a tune up but it would bog down at fuel throttle. We cleaned, replaced some wiring at the coils and it ran like a champ. Then we had a no...

    Anyone ever see this happen?(leaf spring broke)

    I just spoke to Skyjacker, they said to go through the company I bought from. So I called 4wheel parts.com They said I have to purchase a new one at $66.99 +tax and then return the broken one for a full refund. So in the end it will cost me shipping of about $14 for 2 new leafs. Not too bad...

    Your right that does look like the AAL I got from Skyjacker. Do they have any sort of guarantee on their parts? I have only had it for about two years.

    Anyone ever see this happen?(leaf spring broke)

    I did not think that leaf springs could be broken on a passenger vehicle. I have heard of them breaking on big trucks and buses but not on an X. Look at he 2nd one up from the bottom. BTW anyone have a replacement?

    What's the best place to buy new full length rocker panels?

    Supposedly this is the same stuff that some manufactures use at the factory. Thats good enough for me.

    What's the best place to buy new full length rocker panels?

    How about these? I am going to have to do a bit of surgery myself and this it what I have been looking at. But instead of welding I may use this new Structural Adhesive from 3M.
