    Weird misfire, mainly under load.

    Yeah, if I gunned it and it downshifted, it would misfire, pop flames, and have no power, and it STILL didn't throw a code.

    Weird misfire, mainly under load.

    I'm sure, they're rubbing against brake lines, one was laying on the steering shaft and had polished a line on the shaft, on was crimped against the coil bracket, just ridiculous.

    Weird misfire, mainly under load.

    correction, fireworks everywhere. The previous owner must have done plug wires and they finally wore down, they're chafing on everything metal.

    No fireworks that I could see.

    Weird misfire, mainly under load.

    Nothing seems to have popped a CEL yet, which has surprised me. But I'm definitely going to try the water idea.

    Weird misfire, mainly under load.

    This has been happening for some time now, when I cruise and it puts it into the highest gear, there is a very obvious miss, because the vehicle starts surging. When I floor it, it misfires and also backfires. I replaced one of the coils, still happened, replaced the other coil with the coil I...

    Supercharger questions

    I guess my question is why foxbody superchargers won't bolt to an Explorer 302, and if there is another way to supercharge if not

    Multiple door problems, tranny stuttering in 2nd/3rd (99 limited explorer)

    The driver door exterior cylinder linkage comes undone by itself, and it won't unlock and lock normally, sometimes won't lock. Passenger door interior door handle had to be jimmy'd to open the door, and then I pulled the door panel off, and the linkage from the inner handle to the latch...

    Difference between the 5.0HO and the 5.0W

    Only difference is cam, lifters, rockers, firing order, distributor gear. Am I picking this up right?

    Difference between the 5.0HO and the 5.0W

    So the engines can use the same heads/crank/pistons/rods/block?

    Difference between the 5.0HO and the 5.0W

    So aftermarket parts fit both the HO and W?

    Difference between the 5.0HO and the 5.0W

    What's the difference between the 5.0HO that came in foxbody Stangs and the 5.0W that comes in the Explorers? Also, what parts are interchangeable if any?

    What kind of 5.0?

    So basically we're stuck with heads, cams, and stroker kits? Because that's what it sounds like! Hahaha

    What kind of 5.0?

    Well I guess my question is, where would I acquire a supercharger that would bolt on? (centrifugal preferred) My brother was thinking last night, and he asked me "What is some good bolt-on power?" Of course my first thought was headers and full exhaust, injectors, intake (if they have them)...

    What kind of 5.0?

    Brother has a 5.0 Limited AWD '99 Explorer, and we're looking to make it more fun. In order to do that, I need to know what kind of 5.0 it is. I'm almost sure it's a modular, but I have a choice of Boss, modular V8, and small block Windsor. I'm almost sure it's not a Boss, and I thought Windsors...
