    Need help ASAP!!

    well by no exhaust i meant straight piped to a single chamber that dumps before the rear axle. I checked and its not vacuum, changed out the coil pack and that did nothing. My buddy seems to think it might be an injector stuck open possibly.

    Need help ASAP!!

    I dont have a way of checking pressure but i just replaced the pump/sending unit and filter a couple months ago. I may go get another filter to throw in and try that since theyre cheap

    Need help ASAP!!

    So today I was leaving from class to head home and noticed that all of a sudden my explorer started running really crappy when pulling off the line from stop lights and signs. Since mine is very cold blooded and the motor was cold I didnt think much of it because it normally doesnt run awesome...

    Getting closer to my full width 3 link sas need some help

    So as time has progressed i have dug deeper and planned out my full width 3 linked sas im going to do on my 91 explo. I picked up a 9" out of a 77 f150 that i will be using and will be picking up a hp44 off a buddy here soon. The front will end up getting either 12" or 14" coilovers (depending...

    1956 F100 Explorer Chassis Swap

    As a fellow 56 F100 builder I am kind of torn on this build... I love the amount of work and craftsmanship into the build and never heard of combining and explorer and F100 before, but IMHO it seems like you worked a lot harder than you had to to reach this point. I have a mustang II front end...

    The power behind the ohv 4.0

    Hey guys sorry about the late response but I replaced the plugs and wires and that helped out a lot as well as cleaning up the throttle body and maf. And if it still matters i think i have 4.10's

    The power behind the ohv 4.0

    When the pedal is on the floor the butterfly is all the way open. Plus the little "mod" helped more than i thought I'm less deep in the throttle at highway speeds. I have a fuel filter i bought when it was new that i never got a round to putting in so I'm gonna do that and check the plugs see...

    The power behind the ohv 4.0

    around town im anywhere from little throttle input to maybe 2/3 throttle (i have to climb hills is the only reason for 2/3). from 40-70 if i leave it in 4th and stand up on it takes a couple seconds to get itself together and it will start pulling after that. i just did the "throttle cable mod"...

    The power behind the ohv 4.0

    The power behind the ohv 4.0

    my last vehicle was a 2000 5.0 explorer so thats why this one seems so slow. and yes im on the floor and just above the floor cruising 70 at about 2500rpms. its in pretty good condition, all stock 190xxx miles

    The power behind the ohv 4.0

    So after owning my 91 for a couple months now, i am noticing more how much wide open driving i have to do on the freeway. I know the 4.0 isnt a powerhouse motor but it seems like i shouldnt have to drive it wide open. Along with that, it almost seems like it would have trouble getting out of...

    16" stock wheel width and backspacing

    I am intrigued by your 56 f100 as for I am building one haha
  19. I

    will they fit?? (backspacing)

    I'm looking for a set of wheels for my 91 xl Explo to run until i gather everything for my SAS. As of right now she is sitting on some miss-matched tires and wheels and I want to get a cheap set that is matching but tall enough to drop my cruising rpm a ways so she isnt spinning as hard. Ive run...

    Need help asap!!!

    So guys the time has come where my on the fly transfer case motor has died. Went to go play in the mud today and went to drop her in 4wd and nothing happened. Checked both fuses and the 15 amp fuse under the dash had popped, replaced it and nothing. I was eventually going to convert to the...

    Fuel Sending Unit and Clutch

    Thanks for the tip I wasn't sure how to do that! I'll change it when I get home and can hop on my laptop. It's an electric t-case but I'm gonna put a manual it probably when I have to replace the slave cylinder because i think it's starting to go out
