    OBD-1 & EEC-IV Laptop Software?

    Here is one product called Autotap. I know nothing about it other than the user interface looks cool :-) I'm not sure how functional it would be. It's also a bit pricey at around $200. But I guess if you are constantly making engine changes, being able to save the historical data in a graphic...

    OBD-1 & EEC-IV Laptop Software?

    Does anyone know of any good laptop type software and cable for an OBD-I '94. I have found some really great stuff already, but it's all '96+ OBD-II. Thanks.

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    I am not sure what 'seafoam' is.... The MAF code was the only one I was getting. I was actually surprised because I kind of expected the 02 sensor. I noticed this afternoon that it appears to happen most when the RPMs drop to about 750. Once it hits 750 there is a sudden drop to 500 and a...

    OBD-1 ---> OBD-2

    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to convert a '94 which would be OBD-I compliant to OBD-II. I would like to get a diagnostic setup for my laptop, but all of the ones I have seen require OBD-II. Or,....if anyone knows of any laptop/software setup that I can use with my OBD-I '94 that...

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    Thank you. I read a very good article on the board somewhere about checking/adjusting the TPS, so I will try that. I will also check the IAC. Thank you again everyone for your help.

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    I used denatured alcohol to clean the MAF filaments. I haven't gotten a chance to rerun the codes again. If I get home early enough I will do it this evening. I just wasn't sure if anyone knew of a common cause of rough and stalling idle. I will also try cleaning the throttle body. I'm not...

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    It's happening again. The check engine light is coming off and going on. The problem is during hard acceleration (like pulling through an intersection) or when idling. It seems like it really starts having trouble when I am sitting at a light. Any ideas?

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    Okay,...15 minutes of work (30 if you count the time I left the negative battery cable off to clear the PCMs memory) and my truck seems to be fixed. I only took it for a short test drive but had no idle problems and no check engine light. I also noticed that it does seem to be idleing much...

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    Sorry, accidentally hit return :-) Also, if this is the cause what can I do to fix it? I am going to go down now and try to clean the MAF filaments like I read somewhere else on the board. Thanks for the help. Dave

    '94 Ex, MAF Sensor

    I have a '94 Ex with about 190,000 miles on it. This morning the truck started kind of roughly, not much but just a little noticeable. I got in and drove a few miles and while sitting at a stop light, the check engine light came on and then it stalled. I started it back up, the light was still...

    V6 OHC to V6SOHC Swap

    Can anyone tell me how difficult it would be to put a 2002 V6 SOHC engine into my 1994 which currently also has a V6? I really don't have a need for th V8 (gas mileage) and found a pretty good deal on a nearly new 2002 engine. Thanks for the help.

    Help needed!! getting ripped off by a dealer

    Bardz2001..... I would give my local BBB a call. If this is a reputable dealer that just made a mistake (we all make them), then they have nothing to worry about and your call won't get them in any trouble. However, if this dealer has gotten called on before for srewing people...

    Front Diff problem??

    Thank you very much to all of you who replied to my question. It appears that my first assesment was incorrect and you guys are very right. I put it back up on the jacks and placed it into four low again. The front drive shaft is turning and so is the driver side half shaft. I'm assuming that...

    Front Diff problem??

    I have a '94 Explorer XLT 4x4 with about 144,000 miles on it. I recently noticed that my 4x4 low was not engaging. The light comes on but the wheels will not engage. So I put it up on four jack stands and put it in 4x4 low. The front drive shaft is spinning (with all four wheels off of the...

    Intermittant no start

    I recently had the same problem with my '94 Explorer XLT. Are you ready for a list of all the work it took me to fix it. After many trips to a mechanic (and many hook ups to a computer to tell me nothing was wrong), this is what was figured out. Here goes: 1) Go to Ford dealer 2) Ask...
