my x does the same thing, but just at idle... just every now and then, a lil "bump" from the sick cylinder, feel a lil miss, then smooth for a while. mine mainly just does it in gear tho...

check your fuel tank vent, try running it with the cap loose/off after you fill up, and see if you have the same issue. if not, check/clean the vent, maybe even replace the fuel cap. they do go bad.

sounds like a wiring problem in the dash cluster. pull your dash cluster and check for burnt places on the circuit board

a 4.0 ford ranger tube is the same thing, but like celly said, a junkyard is probably your only option if you want oem

any of you guys got an idea on what to do here? i was changing the front shocks on my 94 x, and the lower mounting stud broke off. fun. i didnt have access to a welder, but i did have access to a drill, so i drilled a hole right next to the factory mount, and after a long bolt and a few washers...

ahh, the ford explorer. if its not one thing, its a hundred.

i will definitely have to try this stuff... my X is doin the same thing

nothing a little precision machining with a die grinder couldnt fix...

a gm one wire alternator is as easy to come by as a $50 bill. pn p7127se at advance, or, any gm alternator with the delcotron 1-2 plug (flat plug, two wires, plugs into the back from the side,) all you have to do is bridge the #1 terminal to the post on the back with a short piece of wire, and...

they do at advance ;):exp:

when all else fails, make a bracket and install a GM one-wire...;) :exp:

AMEN! i lost a motor in a buick due to a fram:exp:

i've always run castrol in my rides. helped a friend rebuild his dodge dakota that had penzoil in it for 200k, and was changed religiously every 3k. there was so much sludge and gunk in that engine, we had to degrease it just to find all the head bolts... as for fram filters, i lost an engine in...

no, it controls all shifts, but i had the exact same problem, and it was the modulator valve:exp:

check the modulator valve. i had the same problem

count me in.. headed there now.....:exp:

lift any idea where i can get a suspension lift for a 94 xlt? :exp:

i'm looking into buying a 2nd explorer to add to my collection, but it has an issue. it keeps frying starters. literally smoking them. they usually last about a month before they burn up... any ideas? its a 93 xlt :exp:

i've had engines jump time by one tooth and run like this. dead meat till 3k, then all heck breaks loose....

i thank my dad every day that i have to work on my 94 x. he has a snap-on diagnostic machine... so nice, so nice...

chances are, thats a limited slip rear end.. put some posi-trac addive in it (available at advance auto). had a blazer once that did the same thing, and the issue was in the limited slip. threw in a bottle of the posi-trac friction modifier, fixed it right up.

i would say there's a short in the radio wiring, or maybe power backfeeding from the radio to the interior lights. on the factory head unit, there is a wire to dim the radio lights when the headlights are on. also, i'm reasonable sure there is a courtesy/ashtray light that is in the same wiring...

thats the amp:exp:

to everyone that's looked at this, i've got it figured out. there's a little rod that goes into the modulator valve that has somehow disappeared. I had to order it from a dealership, and it has been classified as obsolete. only two dealers in my state had it, so I had it shipped in from the...

well.... as far as using the old torque converter, i dont see a problem with that, as long as you drain all the fluid out of it before you install it. note, it will probably take 12-15 quarts of fluid to fill the trans after doing this. as far as placed to wheel in CG, there are a few...

plain and simple bad od solenoid. you're better off to go purchase all new solenoids somewhere else.:exp:

almost... you have almost everything you need. go ahead and replace the front pump seal and the rear (output or extension housing) seal. also, a manual shaft seal (shift shaft) would be a good idea. replace the dipstick tube grommet with a new one if you can find one. :exp:

there's a place called advance adapters that can sell you any kind of adapter you would need to do this swap. and if they dont have it, they'll make it to your specs. check'em out. www.advanceadapters.com

I will have some pictures up sometime later. I do have plans later to lift it a couple inches, but thats it. its mainly a family vehicle right now, and its hard enough as it is to get my 10 month old into his car seat. Even though its a daily driver family transporter, it does see some offroad...

My lil green 'sploder is a 94 XLT. It's all original, and all stock except for the Mile Marker manual locking hubs, and some aftermarket fog lights. Dora (as my daughter calls it for obvious reasons) has 258,000 miles on her, and I'm the 3rd owner. She's got a lil rust in the normal places, but...

hello all, I joined this form in hopes i could get an answer to a problem i have. The modulator valve on my 94 explorer, affectionately named dora by my daughter, was blowing tranny fluid into the engine and out the exhaust. I replaced the faulty unit with one from advance auto, which is an...
