Braintrust, I've got a 94 XLT automatic with 146k on the clock that just started showing signs that something is wrong as far as cooling goes. I'm not quite sure what it could be, hopefully y'all could point me down a road... (i'm not rich, but i also don't have money to buy a new vehicle, so...

My 1994 XLT recently started leaking antifreeze. Found out my radiator was starting to wear, so we replaced it with a new Modine OE replacement. At the same time, we replaced the t-stat. Noticed the truck started to warm up a bit more (the previous t-stat was stuck open), and then you could...

HI there. I stumbled upon this forum when i started thinking about buying an Explorer. Well, one kinda fell into my lap... $2000 for a 1994 XLT with 110k miles, leather, power everything, etc. How could i say no? So the general questions would be "what should be done first?" I'm guessing...
