I drive a 2004 ford explorer 4.0 SOHC 4wd. about a week ago I noticed a loud rattle on start up and I was convinced it was timing chain tensioner or a bad starter bendex. I finally realized it was the passenger side catalytic converter making the noise, I saw that a lot of times its the heat...

I have an automatic 1999 explorer and have had the transmission rebuilt 3 times in 2 years. Its been doing fine for about 6 months until now. I'm driving down the road staying at the same speed and the car jumps from however many rpm's it was at to about 3000 rpm's over that. Then it'll go back...

In reverse and drive though it creates engine shaking and the truck dies.i torqued down the flywheel buts to converter to...

Hey guys, Interesting forum lots of great info. 1994 Ford Ranger 4.0 I was wondering if a converter would cause a repeated code 137 ? (HEGO sensor rich) I got that code KOER -- I have replaced both O2 sensors and MAF. The MAF fault was repaired with MAF replacement. I was reading some...

So I just found out by our mechanic that the Transmission Torque Converter is bad, and needs to be replaced. Would I be better off replacing the whole transmission? Or just the torque converter. We have our own mechanic we go to, so no way am I going to the dealer, and I could always buy the...

I bought a Haynes manual for this truck. The forward clutches are worn in the factory installed transmission, and I'm swapping it for a transmission I was given by a friend (I live in the sticks and the closest transmission shop is 60 miles out). The manual says to remove the starter, then...

A spring was installed in the transmission case worm trail to trap large machining chips, and reduce engine stall complaints caused by the stuck converter lock-up valve in the main control of the transmission. This spring should not be installed in transmissions built prior to 8/21/91.

I have a blocked cat and no money for a few weeks (gotta love when things break this time of year) If I drill a few holes in the pipe just before the blocked Cat will that help the backpressure enough to buy me a few weeks before I can get my exhaust fixded correctly? I would like to not...
