    Allternator wire burnt in to

    I was working on my explorer and noticed the wire going to my alternator was burnt and when touched it, it broke. I have a 200amp alt with 0 gauge wire running to the battery. Not hitting against anything that I was aware of, anyone have a idea of what it could have been?

    Hid bulb socket

    I was wanting to see if anyone had a set of the plastics things u lock a bi-xenon bulb into to make it a 9007. I have a set of h4 bulbs and if I had the 9007 end I can use them in my explorer. And if anyone has a extra 55w Ballest I need one of them to lol thanks

There is nothing in the oil and there's no smoke coming from the exhaust so idk...

    Oil pressure problems and overheating?

    I will try that. I just got home and I drove maybe 2 miles at most from work and the motor was just steaming with smoke. The motor it's self isnt even hot and the temp gauge was normal. The fan when spun by hand spins normal and I'm wanting to think that there is a leak and it's hitting the...

    Oil pressure problems and overheating?

    Well like I said it only didn't that rarely since I've had it. The pressure takes forever but if I rev it will jump up to normal. Imma replace that sensor tommorow and see if it fixes it. Is there any sure way to tell if a water pump is bad?

    Oil pressure problems and overheating?

    There is coolant in the system I just filled it and I changed the oil about 300 miles ago. I accidentally put 5w 20 in it but I didn't think it would matter. The oil pressure takes a little while to show on gauge and giving it has can make it jump up sometimes. The gauge never reads that the car...
