    91 and 95, same transmission problem?

    Hi! My -91 Explorer did get 2 new transmissions before it was parked forever.. :( Looking at a long milage 95-model now, do they have the same trans problems as the first gens?

    Size from factory?

    Find soooooooooooooo many posts about possible tire sizes, but what tire and rim sizes did a 1991 XLT come with from the factory? Have 225/75 R15 on now, but they seem to be kind of small..

    "New" truck! :)

    Thank you! Finally something to pull the horse trailer with! :) The transmission in the Explorer has been replaced a couple of times.. :D The previous owner has taken good care of it, and I plan to do that too. It's my first diesel, but I think I'll find out how to take good care of it, can't...

    Identify, what year?

    - 91 XLT. Is there a way to tell what year the transmission is? All I know is that the trans was replaced some years ago at a local Ford shop. The PO (wifes dad :)) doesn't have a clue about what they put in.. I'm kind of hoping it's a later model of the A4LD..

    Starter motor? Ford..

    Hi! Ford Mondeo -96, V6. Sometimes when starting, there is a lot of "noise" and "rattling". Sometimes it won't start until after turning the key for about 10- 15 seconds.. Could it be as easy as changing the starter motor? There is also a more quiet rattling noise on the other side of the...

    Nope, no nut inside.. Finally got the time to do it.. So much more space now! It was an easy job and the non A/C box fits right on! Pics of the new one in place and the sooo much bigger old one..

    Stuck headbolt..

    I have to drop the transmission? Because? Are there three on each side and a couple on he back of the motor? Or do I misunderstand? Or I simply can't get to the three on each side without dropping the trans? Rik

    Stuck headbolt..

    It's going slow here.. Too much time at work and in the stable.. So, if I understand right, the FPR isn't in anyway different in the 91 - 94 models except for the way it connects to the lines? Get a newer FPR and other lines and it will fit?

    Stuck headbolt..

    This is? Anyone can tell me what this is? Broke the plastic fitting to the fuelline(?) that's connected to it on the top.. Old hard plastic that broke like nothing.. What is it? And what do I do/what kind of connection do I need to fit the fuel line back on? Do I have to replace it or will...

    "freeze plug (also called an expansion plug).." The same thing as a "Cylinder head plug"? I might as well ask since this is all new to me.. :) Rikard

    Stuck headbolt..

    Thanks! I'm sorry but I'm not sure I understand what you mean exactly by "..the ones on the side of the block.." Would you please explain some more? Corrosion, yes, actually I have changed the coolant quite often (in the short period I've had the car) and it has always been "rusty".. So...

    As soon as I started using my own head, I got the heads off.. :) Thank you, Maniak! This is what the head on the drivers side looks like. It's the end that faces the firewall.. Sad..how did it get that bad..
