    Explorer is Lifted But Want More

    Never heard of a sloped body lift, got a link to a website, kind of dont want to go that route but i might. I might have to get a body lift also to fit 35's but was thinking 2" instead of 3" body lift because i heard with 2" you dont have to drop radiator n other things, is that true and wher...

    that dont sound like mine, if mine had that high of pressure (mine 42) it would be the fuel pump is my problem for excess gas getting through injector

    171 174 lean banks codes still reading

    my gas was clear during tests and on sparkplugs, constant pressure of 42 didnt take motor back apart to look at color of injectors yet. most the time its only if the vehicle was originally sold new in california would it have to meet that laws.

    because it states federal and california, because it has the word or name california, to go with california, usually most vehicles have one or other but for both to be listed should go with california i never seen a vehicle before with both and alot of people told me to go with california...

    under the hood in white stickers, it will say it will meet federal or california emissions because there is 2 different fuel injectors about $10difference each, how you know for certain which one to get, mine says it meets blah blah and california emissions, is it the other or ca;ifornia emissions?

    yeah i see what your saying, but gasoline was found on 4 different cylinder spark plugs, 1 spark plug literally had to whip it around or flick it to get the gas out of the spark plug

    worst news i heard yet, the heads on these trucks are starting to crack, leaking antifreeze, would be like leaking around 1gallon of antifreeze every 3kmiles and the sparkplugs might have some stuff on it, i guess the heads are starting to be a problem on these trucks....not on my truck yet

    computer trying to compensate and thats why it reads lean, the o2 sensors are fine so its not telling to dump more gas in 4cylinders, and the fuel pump has no shorts or over pressure to shoot extra gas through injector i think both coil and injectors are gone dont know just yet.... inside...
