Hello, I got the bad news my timing chain has jumped on my 99 SOHC explorer. One shop wants about $1,500 to repair that and says the tranny needs replaced to. Another shop says better off just replacing the whole motor for $3,000 and then dealing with the tranny. I still owe $8,700 on the Ex...

I'm sure the alarm went off, it goes off on me all the time lol. I live on the back side of the apt complex though. I didn't and wouldn't have heard a thing.

Lol, Thats funny. I know it couldn't have been anyone who knows me as one of my favorite hobbies is automatics. The risk of getting caught robbing me isn't the wisest of choices. It was spring break here for the college and next week the public schools, just some young men out for a thrill or...

Hello, My Xploder was broken into the other night. They smashed in both front door windows, cut the wire to the starter and looted off with my 12" pioneer sub, amp, box and some other odds and ends. They took a stab at my center console to, which I just had redone the week before. The police...

Hi, Ok the fuel filter was replased as was the egr valve sensor (SU2108). It sounds like there may be a vacum leak but the entire manifold and all visible lines where sprayed, a big mystery and the egine still sputters and dies when throttled while in gear. Another guess was to replace the...

Hello again, Today I will change out the fuel filter and I will report back later or tomorrow. Assuming I get the thing drivable again I will have the codes re checked and post them here. Thanks.
