    Ya, I think he is too. I need to know where the Camshaft sensor is and if it's an easy replacement.

    Code 214 - SO much $$ Anyone tried to replace the crankshaft sensor?

    ECM code 214 - Camshaft sensor I have read through old threads and have done my research on ECM code 214. My check engine light is intermittent. It has come on and off a few times in the past several weeks. Today is the first time I noticed a jump when I press the gas. Has anyone tried to...

    93 surges and dies

    Did you check you fuel pump relay? On a different occasion, I had to replace it as well. My car would start only sometimes, and when it did it it surged up and then died after a few moments. It was a cheap fix so try that.

    Dana 35

    Thanks. I think I will leave it to the pros. Any recommended ratios? Also, what do the explorers come with stock, open or LS? I'm guessing open. Is this easily changed and do you have to change both the front and back? Thanks! :)

    Dana 35

    Ok, I've had to learn everything I know about cars on my own. I know DANA 35 is some kind of gear set for the rear differential right? Can anyone explain to me the ratios (3.07, 4.11)? Hard to install? what about the front wheels when 4x4 is engaged? will it effect speed, acceleration, etc. Any...

    Awesome idea for door speaker grills

    I think they look pretty cool. :afro: Defiantly different. I just built a custom amp housing where I used plexiglass to cover it up. I'll have pics up soon enough.

    Awesome idea for door speaker grills

    Any pictures? Got any pictures of your work? Wehn I put new speakers in my X I took off the fabric material and painted the mesh screening black. Looks great. You can see the speakers (they're white) bumping when the bass is going.

    AC Help

    I have a 94 with 134a ac. I've had it into the dealership 3 times trying to get the ac to stay working. It works for a several weeks then quits. So obviously there is a leak somewhere. The black tube (evaporator?) is pretty rusted. Should I try recharging myself or should I just bring it in...

    Lousy driver side door handle. Help on paint!

    Hey guys. It's time to replace that busted drivers side door handle, as I'm sure many of you have done. I want to buy one off ebay, but they mostly come in gray. There are few in tan but they are hella expensive. Here's the question, should I get the gray one and just paint it, or should I spend...

    Auto vs. Manual Hubs???

    I did the same thing, go with WARN manual hubs. The automatic ones wear out way to quickly. It's a pain to get out and engage them, but it'll save you money.

    What's the deal with the 20 dollar transistor?

    Hey guys, I was browsing ebay and ran across a 20 dollar transistor for a throttle mod. Could anyone tell me what's up with that? How it works, what it does. I wouldn't be stupid enough to get it off ebay.

    Wire Mesh Grille

    Hey guys, I'm looking for a wire mesh material to make a grille like this: Pretty sweet eh? Anyways, I looked all over lowes and couldn't really find anything. Should I try Home Depot and where would the **** be? Oh yeah, any problems with rusting or does the mesh stay pretty nice?

    !#$$# ABS sensor bolt

    I had the same problem. I had to run all over looking for something that would fit that stupid ass bolt. I believe I ended up finding it at sears. Hopefully you don't have to put in 2 new abs cables like I did, that one hurt the pocket book. Good luck man!

    HELP! Gas Mileage

    9mpg, ouch. Have you tried bringing it to the dealership? If your tire pressure is good, and you don't do any heavy driving, it shouldn't be that bad. I'm not a pro in any means, but it could be a sensor (maf, O2?), or you might even need a new fuel filter.

    Clear corners and new "euro" style headlights. Whatcha think?

    I've ran across that type too, and I'd rather get some new headlights. The lights on there now are fogged up pretty good. I think these things would look sweet.

    How do you get the barf smell out?

    There's actually some chemical that you can buy that clears everything up. It's some kind of iodizer. We just bought a house with a smoker, used that stuff and everything cleared up.

    22MPG. I couldn't believe it.

    I just moved to TX from Michigan. On the way down I got 22 mpg on my first tank. My jaw dropped. I've never gotten gas mileage like that before. I even double checked everything... it was true! Anyways, gas mileage is back down to around normal driving around town, bout 16~17. Just thought it...

    Cost of 4.0L rebuild?? Any guesstimates?

    My OHV actually bit the dust somewhere around 163,000 miles. I had already but too much time and effort into the X to scrap it so I got a Jasper engine with a 75K warranty for around 2600 installed. It's been running great so far!

    Driving to TX from MI. Hesitation and Tire rod problems.

    Hey guys, I'll be driving down to Texas next week. I'm moving there actually. I had it in the dealership last week to get the AC fixed.

    Rancho5000s vs. Monroe Sensatrac

    Hey guys, it's about time for some new shocks. I called up sears and the Rancho5000s are 263 while the Monroe Sensatracs are about 174. Anyone got any opinions about what I should get? Anything past expierences/advice would be cool. Thanks

    Moving to Dallas area

    I'll be living in Grapevine right next to the lake. I've lived in Michigan my whole life so this will be a big change. I'm looking forward to it though. I'm so sick of the winters around here. There looks to be a lot more to do around the Dallas area than around here. Any suggestions for stuff...

    Shocks

    Hey guys, haven't been on in awhile. Anyone got any suggestions on shocks for my 94 X? The ones I have on now are probably about 100,000 miles old so I think it's time to replace them. I'm not very mechanically inclined so I would like to get them put on. Tuffy? Lentz? Any suggestions.

    Oil Leak?

    this was supposed to be a reply to a different string. it wouldn't make sense unless you saw it. haha, the radiator cap? haha
  38. T

    Reservoir tank is always empty

    usually check my oil every two times I fill up, seems to be going down a little bit. Maybe I got a bad motor? I will try a new radiator cap.
