im wanting to cut down my engine harness that runs around front clip and contains the headlights,blinkers,and other stuff i will no longer need after i dovenose it. i would like to just run my own wire. maybe use pieces of the old harness. i have a 91 sport

i just recently cut off my front clip to do a exo cage and dovenose the front. looking to do a little wire tucking. Anyone have the wire diagram/pinouts for things such as the lights and other things in the front end i will no longer need?

Are you street driving it? i had 5r55e with 33s and 4.56s. it was too much gear imo. ran 2500rpm at 65.

i know what im thinking haha all im saying is to bypass the transmission cooler inside of the radiator and only running it to the external transmission cooler. my engine coolant rides from 188 to 191. if my common sense is correct the radiator is doing nothing but possibly heating my...

so what you did was run the oil through the factory rad. first then run it to the thermostat and then to external cooler? im thinking about just running it to the radiator and bypassing the tranny cooler so it just flows through the external cooler cause my tranny temps are good. runs at about...

well i live in florida so its not much of a problem haha. all i have going on now is a relocated oil filter and i have 2 more ports to run to my cooler just havent had the time to install it yet also is there any reason the oil filter shouldnt be located alot higher than the stock location?

im not using one from a yard. i pulled one off of a parts truck i had. If im understanding what youre saying your oil doesnt even get over 215? which means your cooler isnt circulating any oil?

Bump... anyone running one? i set up the filter relocation and it seems as though i lost a couple psi on the high point of the gauge( about 55 psi cold) However i gained a few psi hot idle which is where i was most concered (it sits at 15 at hot idle) i have the cooler just need to pick...

I am looking to add an engine oil cooler to my sohc. reason being is that i am geared at 456 and have 33s. i run about 2500rpm at 65 mph. just for extra protection i want to set one up. i just bought a filter relocation kit (new) for 25 bucks from my buddy. now all i need is 1/2 npt...

i have a 99 ex looking for a tune loader doesnt have to have tunes on and perferably bolt on brackets for coilover conversion.

i doubt this table is accurate because it depends on what your overdrive gear is to determine what rpms and final ratio will turn out to be.

i believe that 4.56 would be wayyy over geared for 33s with a 5.0 Im running 4.56 with a sohc 4.0 and i have a 5 speed trans. im not sure what the 4r70w has for a od ratio but mine is .75 and i turn 2500k at 65 with my big heavy 33s

Heres the problem with that option i dont think its going to be easy to find a 4.10 donor truck especially a 4wd one and i would be rather dumb to get a ranger axle because its much weaker and drum brakes which i cant stand. And not to get you down or anything but 600 bucks is pretty cheap...

i was scared at first about doing gear swaps but i started doing some research and its honestly not that bad. I swapped in 456s in my explorer myself its not too bad just do the research and get a few tools. you dont need to buy top of the line 300 dollar dial indicators or anything just...

i got it clean enough i believe the heads are perfectly cleaned and the block you can barely feel the remaining gasket material so i wont be worried about it.i would have used a 3m pad on a air grinder but the block is decently so so i didnt want to risk scoring or making the surface unlevel. as...

how clean should my head gasket surface be? heres some pics of how clean ive got it so far with a 3m pad and acetone.

got the computer the other day from a ohv catchword PPG1 i realize im basically going back in time but id rather have reliability than power. if i have picked up info correctly the pats code is in the steering column transponder rather than the computer.

i found a ohv with 116k on it going to run a comp test on it and make sure it checks out good. whats the compression supposed to be on a ohv? it have been sitting but i will pull injectors and valve covers and clean everything out make sure everything is good. any tips? im going to...

i want to do it for these reasons i dont want to do a full rebuild because to do it right it requires alot of specials tools that i dont want to buy. the design of this motor is idiotic and problem prone i dont want to deal with the problems it can create i like the ohv its very durable...

Hey yal i have 208k miles on my 4.0 sohc i did the primary chain,guides and tensioner about 500 miles ago, i just got done with the driver side cam chain and tensioner and guides. not even 5 miles after that the rear chain tensioner broke i believe the truck started to stall and slip timing in...

that misfire sounds like a ping to be which could be caused by improper cam timing. not saying that the coil pack wont fix the problem but these motors are tricky to time correctly and are easy to mess up.

me too man. btw i just wanted to share a good technique to anyone else doing this job. if you take a piece of card stock or cardboard with a straight edge on one side you can put the straight edge on the head where the valve cover sets and push the cardboard into the ends of the cam where the...

SHEEESSS ALIVEEEE!!! i appreciate all your help buddy running much better and honestly feels like she has some more omph just judging by my ass dyno it prolly doesnt but anyway can thank you enough youre definitely the expert on everything 4.0 sohc haha.

is it okay to use an impact to loosen the sprocket bolt? i removed the power steering and ac bracket and was able to get a socket on it
