    3 new trouble codes?

    1994 Ford Explorer Limited 4WD Yesterday my explorer was acting a little weird on the highway, not wanting to accelerate very well. Immediately after, the check engine light came on. I pulled 3 codes today and I'm my sure what they're telling me to fix. Error code 10 - cylinder 1 misfire...

    No Start - 1994 Ford Explorer Limited

    Bought my Explorer two weeks ago from the used car dealership in town. Tonight, it decided to not start. Thinking it may be because my dome light stays on for an hour after I turn the car off and lock it, I figured it might be the battery. Tried jumping it, no dice. All of the interior lights...

    Bought a '94 Explorer, a few small issues/questions

    Two days ago I bought a 1994 Ford Explorer Limited, 4WD 4.0L V6. I'm noticing a couple of things that make me a little nervous. First, of course, the check engine light. It pulled code 551, IAC Circuit Failure. I'm not sure what that is, does, or how to fix it. I'm not too bad at fixing things...
