    Max payload?

    On my 91,I installed rear springs out of an Explorer 4wd. Brought the box up 3 inches higher and even rode better. I did this because I haul a snowmobile in the bed and the headlights didn't shine on the road with the original springs.

    98 B-Series 4WD front end groan

    Possibly could be a warped brake rotor, but if it is warped as it turns it would push the brake pads back into the caliper .

    Tachometer / Speedometer Problems:

    Ran into a similar problem at the shop today. It was a cracked line in the printed curcuit. Tap the speedo, it would work. Tap again it would quit. Hope this helps.

    Need help plzzz...Im a honda mechanic

    Just a thought, if the t-belt is loose enough to jump teeth on the gears it can knock out the crank trigger on these models. You have to remove the timing cover. It's not a big job. The 3 timing marks are all in plain sight. Good luck.

    Stall problem today???

    Easiest thing to check is the fuel pump shut-off switch. It will be by the center floor outlet or behind the pass side foot cover. Just press down on the red button to reset it. Good luck.
