    Swapped non-power to power seats, just want them to move.

    I know this topic has been beat to death, but it's actually overwhelming trying to search for an answer because there is so many threads regarding so many different combinations... 2002 Explorer. So I went from non-power, non-heated cloth to heated, power leather. The passenger I hooked up...

    Ahhh this no-start is driving me NUTS. Any help would be much appreciated.

    So you can start back at my last thread if you'd like: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=427247 So it continued to start as I was troubleshooting the hissing sound and the power steering, probably 15 times in a row without issue, and then I had to swap the battery as I had...

    What is this?

    What is this? Lower rear of the passenger side of a 4.0. Whatever it is, mine's leaking oil, a little when it's sitting and a lot when it's running. It's been doing it ever since I had the head gasket and timing assemblies replaced. Does it leaking signify that something is wrong, or is it...

    What controls the injectors?

    Alright, so after battling with my '02 Explorer XLS for ~6 weeks, and having the head gasket and all timing assemblies replaced (and timed), I think I've got it narrowed down to what the problem is. Right now it will turn over all day long but won't even attempt to fire. I've got fuel...

    Were there two different versions of the 4.0 in 2002 Explorer?

    So I bought a new engine to be dropped into my 2002 Explorer, a motor also from a 2002 Explorer, and when my mechanic went to pick it up, he said it was the wrong engine and that everything was in different places. I found this believable because when I Google "2002 Explorer engine" a lot of...

    So I pulled this from underneath my valve cover today...

    Was cleaning off the gasket surface as I was replacing a cracked passenger side valve cover, and all of a sudden I find myself holding this... That's a piece of one of the guides that you have to remove the engine to replace, right? Well, what if I just changed that tensioner, put...

    Ongoing saga with my project Explorer... (new questions daily)

    I'm having all sorts of problems with my Explorer, but I picked it up cheap and intended for it to be a project, but it's gonna be a lot more work than I thought, haha. Oh well. This forum has been very helpful so far, so I figure I'll just start a thread to contain all my various questions as...

    is this supposed to connect to anything?

    Still trying to diagnose why my 2002 4.0 Explorer is running like garbage. I'm talking about the nipple in the middle of the picture on top of that canister. Thanks!

    New thread, and it's a doozy, LOL... throwing 5 CEL codes

    So as I mentioned in my other thread, I picked up an '02 Explorer with the 4.0 SOHC V6. It had a loud ticking noise coming from the front driver's side, which the owner convinced me (and I convinced myself) that it was a bad tensioner. Otherwise it seemed to run decent, down on power and...

    Help! Changed valve cover gaskets and tensioner, now it won't start, spewing coolant

    Hi, So I recently picked up an '02 exporer with a timing chain tensioner tick on the driver's side and leaky valve covers for relatively cheap. It's a little rough here and there, but nothing major, and seemed easy enough to fix and clean up. So over the past few days I finally tackled...
