Bump for Mr.Shorty

Bump Does anyone have thoughts on the trouble codes in the first post?

Glacier991, thats an impressive post, thanks!

Runnin'OnEmpty, followed your advice and placed a bid on fleabay for the one with longer harness (New Ford/Mazda Bosch 15718 O2 Oxygen Sensor (Sub 15717)). Up here in Canada they are over 100.00 Will replace that S1B1 o2 sensor, but meanwhile, How can I check the engine for vacuum leaks?

Idle Air Control

Thanks for a prompt reply! Could interchanging the o2 sensors (left and right side) be a logical next step? Btw, are you referring to upper or lower sensor? Are they even different on top and bottom? Btw, which side is Bank1? I probably could test for vacuum leaks, but not sure how to do it.

I have a 97 4.0 SOHC with 110,000 miles on it. For last couple of years I have been having rough idle at different times (cold and hot engine), standing on the intersections, etc. Nothing that I was concerned about, since it only transferred a minor ammount of vibration to the steering wheel...

It is belt driven, but I am thinking it has some sort of electronic control to it.

Managed to swallow a bit of water with my engine couple days ago, hydrolocked it, took out sparkplugs and air intake, dried it and she started back up fine. Have a problem now though, Radiator fan keeps running non-stop whenever engine is on. What could be contributing to that? Truck was...

I do not want to make things worse than they could already be, so please a little more clarification and additions, as I did not find detailed info on that after using search extensively for past couple of hours. 1) Take spark plugs out (with cables all marked so I don't have to figure out...

How do I manually turn the engine over (without sparkplugs) to get rid of water? Where on the crankcase is the bolt? Which covers come off?

There was a big storm here in Edmonton, Alberta on July 11 2004 (I have pictures but will try to have few good ones uploaded later on). Monthly amount of water fell out of the sky within minutes, and highway that goes through the city turned into a river, quite a few smaller cars stalled under...

97 v6 XLT 140'000 kms (not miles), very good shape... This morning is a cold one here, driving to work had to stop for couple minutes to help some fellow get out of snowbank (not pulling, just pushing and digging his 2 wheel drive Ranger (94-95) out of snow)... While parked, I put emergency...

I redone my rear brakes recently, and have been noticing that my wheels squeal if I break suddenly. I am pretty sure they haven't done it before, and so I am thinking ABS is not functioning right... My quesions: 1) What could it be? 2) How could I easily test if ABS is working properly...

That sounds reasonable for Canada! Try Alberta: 1 accident, 3 tickets (minor - speeding, red light) and being 21 you get $5500 CND... Hell, 2052 US is nothing per year!

Nice !

Would someone have a picture of what we should be looking at?

Considering painting mine black (chrome now), "chromed" plastic looks CHEAPO imho.

Thats true, almost daily pass by Local FireStation, and since it's summer now and bay doors are always open - see one or two guys always going at it.

hm....

Did a search, but haven't seen anything on the following question: Has anyone ever moved sunroof from wrecked Explorer (any other vehicle) to another one? Seems little steep to pay 1000-1500 for a new aftermarket moonroof, could perhaps fing one off a totalled X and then install it. I...

Would someone be able to post a pic or two? I have the same clanking noise when weight distribution changes, would love to fix it... Pictures!

I have seen minivan explode 10 mins after it started burrning... Someone in the crowd said that it will pop once gas tank is empty, and so it did, did not move the van though, just a loud pop.
