    Timing chain rattle?

    I just bought a 2002 Sport trac 4X4 and I am just curious what the timing chain rattle sounds like? Is it more like a clanking noise? If I am trying to listen to something my ears get really sensitive to little things that might mean nothing. With the radio and air off, just before shifting...

    In the market for a 2002 Explorer - need advice

    Hello, I have been looking at some Explorers and I just wanted to get some opinions before buying one. Is there any common issues with the 2002 or newer model that I should keep an eye out for? I see the estimated highway mpg is around 20-21. Does everyone here get about that or do you see...
