    Buying one, Year specific-issues?

    When I had my '91 I had a aux tranny filter on it. I actually got better shifting after that installing that. When I got rid of the Ex it had over 200K on it. So I'm a big believer in taking care of the tranny.

    Buying one, Year specific-issues?

    Hey all, I've been away from this site for a while because I've had other vehicles. But I want to get another Explorer! The one I had was a '91 XL and now I'd like to get like a 97, 98, or 99...maybe a 00 if the price is right. 4 door, AWD, XLT or better. I was thinking of spending around 5...

    Hybrids, eat your hearts out!

    Oh those Toregs are sweet! It's great to see a gas mileage test done in the real world. Often times you hear about cars on a race track by them selves and doing the ol gas-and-coast method. Obviously going nonstop until they run out of gas. That's not a bad looking little car for what...

    Question for the ECX guys - Logo

    I know you guys got an order of shirts with the attached logo made up. Well I was wanting to get some made up for the KC club. And due to a lack of coming up with anything better that appeals to both the off-road and street crowd, I would like to know if I could have permission to print the...

    Type R Explorer???

    I'd be curious to see some production numbers from Honda. Say for example Honda produced 1 million VTECs a year, I bet they produced 2 million VTEC emblems for the same year then sold the rest to people that went in and bought the emblems to put on their non-VTEC cars.

    High idle in park 1,500rpm and 900rpm stopped in drive, help!

    I had a problem with my throttle linkage not returning to the right position. If it was idling high I could pop the hood and actually push the linkage down it would idle normal. (on the intake manifold, it's the same linkage you use to rev the engine). Mine was just getting a bit worn out and...

    All it takes is some Micro$oft money...

    This has been a fairly big topic on a Porsche message board I frequent. I think much higher of Bill Gates after reading that. :D

    Anyone have experience with Blaupunkt

    Check out http://www.midwest-usa.com. Also from Blaupunkt's site they list all their autherized Internet dealers at the bottom. http://www.blaupunktusa.com/warning/warning.asp Just food for thought. I was just recently looking to get the Blaupunkt Austin for my car. The only reason I...

    Need larger fuel tank

    I have no idea where I herd this or what it applies to. But I heard that sometimes there can be a gas tank in a gas tank. So the gas tank itself actually has a vacant area inside it. By either knocking out a wall or removing a plug it will open up the remaining area. The only reason I've...

    What's the cheapest way to do an American flag paint job?

    Here we go. Good 'ol Microsoft Paint. This is probably what I would do. At least it's a rough idea of what I would do. I won't know exactly until I can put tape on the paint.

    What's the cheapest way to do an American flag paint job?

    Where's the paint job? Hehe... That's almost exaclty what I was thinking. I want the stars to be first and then have stripes flowing back to the rear of the truck and down the hatch. I was trying to Photoshop something on my truck, but I'm not that good. I see you just colored it on...

    What's the cheapest way to do an American flag paint job?

    I called a local company near me and a full vinyal covering would run around $2500!

    What's the cheapest way to do an American flag paint job?

    Excellent tips! I did get a chance to see a minivan painted sort of how I want. (some dealership did it and has it parked out front) Anyways their stars don't look the best and have white overspray on the blue paint. So I'll diffently use a template for sure. I wonder even if I get a...

    tranny cooler lines

    A dirty way is to attach a small baggy to the end of each line. Tape it on or whatever. Then without starting the engine...just crank it over a few times. The baggy with the most fluid in it is the out. And again don't start the engine...just turn it over a few times. Oh...make sure you...

    What's the cheapest way to do an American flag paint job?

    I was kicking around the idea of doing an American flag paint job on my 2 door Explorer. The maroon paint on it now is pretty faded and scratched up. I wonder if anybody else knows if it can be done cheaply. I'm talking rattle can paint or something like that. I don't have any painting...
