    getting ready for cross country trek: need advice on improving gas mpg Plus

    Replace MAF sensor, full tune include wires? Ditch the airbox and run a KKM, replace stock restrictive muffler with a cheap turbo muffler. I did this on my 94 and it went to 19 mpg hwy on the trip from MN to OH to WV to Moab, took 3 tanks of gas to get it to 19. And it will run great.

    Colorado Color Run 09/2018

    98 Explorer 5.0 AWD $650 repair Bill - Not a pulley - harmonic sound?

    I was a dealer mechanic in upstate NY, that is a real bear to work on because of the rust. It takes so much longer to do anything then it did when I moved to Virginia, what a pita. Everything is rusted solid and either breaks or you end up with the torch to loosen it up. Ugh.

    91 Ex 2wd only getting around 14mpg ... lots of new parts help !!

    I drive my 94 about 4000 miles a year so we piled in and drove the old girl about 400 miles straight....18.6 mpg at 60mph tops as my tires are square. A lot of back roads also. That's a 4x4 auto,3.73 rear with manual hubs and 156,000 miles.

    Just remember fellas,all you guys like me with stock vehicles can do class 5 trails with little chance of damage as long as you go light on the skinny pedal. Been there and done it.
