    Starts missing at 3200 RPM

    2001 Explorer Sport SOHC 4.0 Ok... I just replaced the PVC vacuum line that wraps around the left side (passenger) of the engine. It's the one with the rubber 90's on each end and the PVC tube connects at the front of the upper manifold on one end and the rear drivers side on the other...

    Some have it - Some don't!

    I've recently purchased 2 - 2001 Explorer Sports for my kids. One is more "dressed" than the other. The "dressed" one has factory front tow hooks coming out through the bumper. The other one doesn't. I'm just wondering why and what's the difference? I know that there's an expert out there...

    Hitch not centered...

It is about 1/2 inch off to the left (driver side), and is pretty noticable with the ball plug out (and missing) of the bumper. The old ball hole in the bumper...

    Time to replace radio in 2000?

    I have a 2000 Explorer. As you may have read in an earlier post, my AM is on the blink. I would like to know if there is a replacement that is "kinda" factory looking. Maybe I'm old fashioned about that. What the heck. Tell me which radio would do me a really good job and if there would be a...

    AM on the blink - Help!

    AM on the blink - 2000 Explorer - Help! I'm an AM radio listener. Gotta have my news/talk radio. But, lately I've been having trouble with the AM. It intermitantly comes and goes, usually when I hit a bump in the road. It never goes out completely, but gets mighty weak. Is there a quick fix...

    2000 Explorer bad idle

    My 2000 Explorer at start up wants to idle down so low it almost quits. Then, the computer kicks in, increases the idle speed to save it from cutting off, then it idles back down and starts the whole thing over again. Any ideas?? 3 time Explorer owner. JL
