    99 Explorer_Rebuilt Tyranny_then Blown Head Gasket in Tyranny Shop

    The only truth this guy talked about is that it does not make any sense to perform a gasket repair but requires a new or rebuilt engine.All the rest is a story.:mad:

    99 Explorer_Rebuilt Tyranny_then Blown Head Gasket in Tyranny Shop

    I think you are right. Also I want to make one more point.As far as I know a car can go, at least start even if the head gasket is blown but my car won't start and mixed oil and coolant leak from the engine.It looks like there is more serious damage in the engine.:mad:

    Well in fact I did not talk him about anything,just listened him about the situation and left the shop in order to cool first and then think.Tomorrow I will revisit him and this time I will give him an option about the engine repair.

    99 Exp. Sport O/D off FLASH,SERVICED (1K$), STILL FLASH

    Today I visited a transmission shop and he diagnosed the system. The output was `Gear 5 incorrect ratio`and possible reasons was either a bad solenoid or harness wire.The cost estimation of him is 200-400 $ total for labor and parts.

    I read several posts such as the same problem with O/D flash for a long time (several months or a couple of years) but the guy who posted the thread drove the car without problem. I know this flash indicates a problem because the purpose of it is this.Can the reason be an electrical issue, a...

    99 Exp. Sport O/D off FLASH,SERVICED (1K$), STILL FLASH

    You are exactly right.I will ask them for details about the O/D flashing. One more question.O/D flash does not appear when I drive a couple of mile or may be 6-10 but comes around 15 mile? What can be the reason for that? Thank you all.

    99 Exp. Sport O/D off FLASH,SERVICED (1K$), STILL FLASH

    By this sentence did you mean that transmission guy must change or already changed the tyranny to get rid off the flashing or by providing the temporary solutions each time he tries to make me demand a tyranny rebuild? But rebuilt costs too high.
