    Replacing Lower Intake Manifold Gasket

    Well, my No. 5 spark plug on my 94 4.0L OHV has been showing up oily for several years now. Retorquing the lower manifold bolts have no effect. The X generally starts and runs great with no lack of power; except, at highway speed it will ping going uphill. I've been through most all the...

    Folks, ISSUE: I have a 4.0 4WD 1994 Explorer with 140K. My Check Engine Light (CEL) has been coming on after 5 minutes and stays on mostly thereafter. When I first checked the codes with Key On Engine OFF (KOEO) I got 335, 327, 332, 336, and 337 (all EGR related). After resetting the...

    94 - 4L OHC. Books calls from between .052 to .056 spark plug gap. I'm using Autolite plubs and gapped at .054 I was experiencing ping before I recently changed plugs and still have it with the new plugs. No noticable difference. Question: If a person is experiencing ping, would it...

    Pinging getting worse

    Folks, I've got a 94 Explr 4 L. I've got a pinging that I've not been able to get rid of for over a year. Some days, I don't hear it at all. Other days, I get it pretty bad. It doesn't ping at all until the engine gets hot. I primarily notice it at higher speed when I punch it. I've...

    Oil Pressure

    94 X running fine; however, on very rare occasion my oil pressure drops about halfway between normal and low. Happened again today and of course causes me great concern. Drive the care around for a few minutues, stop and start the X again and its back to normal. Every time this happens...

    Pinging - Observation

    A lot of pinging in our Xs is caused or agravated by carbon build up. My 94 began pinging this year on the hills. I considered cleaning the MAF and IAC, but first thought I'd run a couple treatments of Chevron Techron through the engine with some hard driving. My pinging has completely...

    "Not" overheating

    94 X 4.0 with auto tranny. I hear a lot about overheating. In my case, I have neve had the temperature needle even up to half way mark. I think I'd have to run with extremely low coolant to ever get it hot. Car was purchased slightly used in Arizona. Is it possible I have a special...
