ohv

I've been combing the net trying to find some reliable answers to this question. I have a 98 XLT, the SOHC is on its way out. I don't care about power loss moving to an OHV, i just despise the design of the SOHC and want to put it out of the picture. SO! From what i've found is that the 4.0...

Hey guys, It's my first time on the forum. I got a 2000 Explorer XLS 4.0 OHV. I was recently at the Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit this past weekend. And I loved it. It got me to want to boost my Explorer. I was wondering what were some of you guys' best performance modifications on a...

Hey everyone, I have a 2000 Explorer Sport with the OHV engine. For the past year or so, I've had a coolant leak but I could never identify where it was. I finally found the spot, and I took a picture: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/638/20110426132935.jpg/ The leak is coming from...

I'm posting this as I believe that it might be helpful to others. :D I still haven't found my vacuum leak

Hi, I've scoured the forum for a parts list for a stock rebuild for my 4.0 ohv. The engine runs decent with some hesitation and rough idle. I know some would say to just replace the intake gaskets, hoses,etc and be done with it. However, I acquired the car third hand, I don't know how good...

Greetings all, searched the forum for this, didn't find anything so if someone has any info or if this has been discussed help a brother out. Got a 98 XLT V6 OHV, 115K miles. I have a new EGR valve I'd like to put in. I'd fixed my lean codes by replacing all gaskets and vac lines on my...

I have a 1993 Ranger with a 4.0L OHV engine. It's almost shot, so I want to replace it. From the research I have already gathered, I can assume that with a few change over's a newer model engine out of a 1996 Ranger/Explorer/Aerostar would slide back in nicely. But what about those newer...

I need to replace my thermostat so I figured I would flush my coolant since its been to long. I bought new coolant, Prestone super flush and prestone flush kit adapter. --->I do not understand where Prestone wants me to attach the little TEE that comes with the kit. I searched the forum...

Hello good people and thanks for this great forum. As a new member who has been reading for hours around here trying to find some answers to my specific problem, one thing I have noticed- that trying to find problems/solutions for your specific engine type and year model is very frustrating...

Will the TPS (throttle position sensor) mod I've read about work on the 4.0 OHV and how effective is it? past experiences anyone? And also, what is the advantage of an OHV over a SOHC? is there any whatsoever? I have the OHV and the power difference of the SOHC is killing me :( :( :(

I have the ohv and ive had this issue for a while now. when i apply anymore than 3/4 throttle the floor/pedal/shifter vibrates. not too too bad but very noticeable driving. Could it be the tranny?? its a the 5 speed manual. Ive never changed the fluid....spark plugs have also never been changed...
