    Manifold clamp?

    Sorry I'm so late replying been busy. The "clamp" I referred is for holding one ear of exh manifold if you have a broken stud. Luckily mine's the bottom one next to the firewall on drivers side. I have since bought one for a newer GM v8 and it's close. Think I'll take it to a welder and have...

    2004 Sport trac

    Hey S, if you're hoping to save some gas be sure to do the brown wire mod. You cut the wire where it comes out of the transfer case and run the two up into the console to a toggle.

    Is jack shaft front bolt supposed to be reused?

    O2 plug different?

    Hello everyone. Want to ask if anyone knows what year/years explorer had the round plug on the O2 sensors? Need to know since ordering one online and my plugs are square. I'm not sending it back so the year info will help when going to the yard to cut the upper one off. Thanks.

    Manifold clamp?

    Went to remove a stud and it broke about 1/4" below the surface of the head. It was the lowest rear stud on an explorer 4.0 engine. I've looked online and every one except for the 7.2? Ford are for GM vehicles. It's a simple plate or in my case like a piece of angle w/ a hole or two on one side...
