Thanks for the advice guys. Will take care of it today. - jason

Everyone here has been so helpful in the past, so thought I'd post about my newest Explorer issue... Whenever I brake, there's a grinding, rubbing sound that has recently gotten worse. It started a couple of days ago and got louder yesterday. When I step on the brake and slow down faster...

Glacier... thanks. for the heads-up. I went to Kragen and got their assorted mix of rubber vacuum caps for around $4 and it worked great. FYI, I found the problem after listening for the hissing sound. Put my finger on the leak and it seemed to close the air system. It's kind of in...

Hrmitrl, I searched around and the cap did fall off on the back of the intake. Sounds like a hiss and when I put my finger on it the leak sounded like it stopped. Is this a part that I can pick up at an auto parts store relatively easily? Do you know what I would specifically ask for...

I'm not sure if it's the power steering... I used to have a Granada that made some weird power steering noises... this sounds more like a chain or something. Any other ideas?

Hey, I had a question... I have a 91 Explorer (Eddie Bauer). Sometimes when I'm on the freeway (at least 55 mph+), I get this noise coming from what seems the steering column. It almost sounds like a bike chain or something. It typically comes when I'm going around a turn. I'm going on...
