Hello everyone. My 2006 explorer 4.6 v8 has a ticking sound coming from the engine. Im currently deployed and trying to help my wife pin point the spot. Im not 100% sure if its a lifter, exhaust leak or what it could be. I know it has gotten louder over the past 3 months and i think the sound...

A few weeks ago I purchased a 06 Ford Explorer V8 and it looks like it’s going to need some attention in the upper exhaust department; it sounds like the passenger side exhaust manifold has a crack as well as the catalytic converter is giving me a P0420 code. So my first question is has anyone...

Hello, this is my first post here so hello whomever may read this. :chug: I recently purchased an 08' Sport Trac with the 4.6 and of course I want to hear it. So I have already, the Gibson 319901 Catback system ready to install. However, I am worried that I will end up exceeding my local...

Hello, I know a common problem with newer explorers is the exhaust fumes recirculating back into the cab. I have had the issue on my 2014 and now 2015 Ford Explorer. I'm currently in the lemon law process. Has anyone had success with Lemon law on them? I live in Florida. Thanks

Is it possible for a starting issue to be caused by a change in the exhaust system? I recently had the exhaust on my 93 XL replaced. Cut everything from the headers back off and new pipe welded in. This included losing the cat entirely as it needed to be replaced and I've always just had it...

I just purchased the 2010 Adrenalin below that has a 4L V6. I love this ST! I traded in my 2007 Mustang GT that had borla exhaust and sounded great! I was wondering if there were any good mufflers for the 4L v6. I want something that sounds good and doesnt pop! :rangerred:

I have 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT and I've been wanting to make my truck louder. I want to do dual straight pipes but people keep telling me that my truck will sound like a weed eater or like an old Honda unless I get my cats removed, so could i get some advise on this it would really help.

So i got a 92 explorer xlt. And im looking for a better sounding muffler that will bolt right in place of the OE replacement one the previous owner had installed.

Has anyone had any luck with magnaflow high flow cats on early 90s explorers & passing smog in California? Any recommendations for California legal aftermarket headers or exhaust systems?

hey everyone, I own a 2002 Sport Trac and I was looking to get a dual exhaust put on. I want to do it myself, so I was wondering if anyone else did a modification like this as well. I just want to know what kind of exhaust was best for my truck, but isn't too pricy. I'm 16, so I don't make a...

I swear I posted this, but maybe I did something wrong - sorry if it is a dupe! My neighbor buddy, along with my small hands and arms, finished changing the plugs. However we noticed a hole to the left of the front plug on bank one. We cannot identify it through that stupid Haynes manual...

So I bought a 99 ex 4.0 sohc about 2 weeks ago when I got it the only problem was a rough idle and some loose exhaust mounts...so I changed the air and fuel filter did an oil change couldn't get the old filter off just figured I'd get it next change as it looked quite new and the oil looked like...

So a couple weeks ago I bought my first vehicle, a 2001 V6 5-Speed Manual Transmission Sport Trac. Needless to say, I'm in love. While it wasn't 4wd, I went ahead and bought it because it was a pretty great deal, so for $2500 cash in hand, I bought my very own truck. 188,000 miles with no...

I've had my '99 EX EB for a couple weeks now. It needed some exhaust work so I was scanning threads for information. A few people claimed to have a helluva time getting the tailpipe section into place. I put a new muffler and tailpipe on and threading the tailpipe through was one of the...

I had added a K&N CAI and a Flowmaster series 40 muffler with a custom cat back exhaust. The only pipes i didn't have replaced were the ones that went over the axle. I used to get 14 MPG city during the summer and fall. In the winter it went down to 13.8, now i have 12-12.5 after i recently...

Took my 1992 Ford Explorer XLT (4-door, auto 4WD, auto tran, 4.0 V6) for smog test (California) and it failed. It seemed to run fine, and indeed everything passed EXCEPT "NO (PPM)" -- Max 699, measured 2342! So, it's a "GROSS POLLUTER." (I now suspect this was caused by an unoticed missing 8"...

Hey guys, just wondering has anybody removed the secondary Cat from the exhaust of your 4.6 explorer? The big cat. Did it have any good or bad gains mileage, engine codes, exhaust note and so on? My cat is stuffed and im thinking about getting rid of it all together but before I do I want to...

I just recently bought a 99 5.0 EB. I bought an explorer cause I wanted to learn how to work on my truck, customize it and upgrade it myself, and cause I've always really liked these trucks. Until a couple weeks ago I knew absolutely nothing about cars, and since my purchase, I've been pouring...
