    Ok I disconnected the ground from the battery for a few minutes, then drove to the store and check engine light stayed on. Got back and checked the codes again. KOEO pass 111 CM code 332 KOER code 332 So with this code is it the EGR, DPEF sensor or EGR Vacuum Solenoid And will...

    Seafoam in crankcase

    Gmanpaint, If you have a mechanical component that is worn out there is nothing in a can, bottle or anything else that is going to fix the problem. The motor will have to be torn down and parts replaced to fix a broken part. Now the claim to fame of Seafoam fixing mechanical problems, my...

    94 Explorer KOEO and CM codes.

    Thanks MrShorty, You are correct the KOEO code is 111. I am using a test light to check the codes, and I guess my grey hair is sucking oxygen from my brain because I don’t totally understand how to run the KOER test. I had my wife sit in the truck and hit the brake and the motor revved up...

    3.0 Aerostar auto trans.

    A neighbor friend of mine has a late 80’s Aerostar. He says when he first takes off in the van he has to manually shift the trans to get it to shift. But after the first time of manually shifting he says that it will shift fine. Any ideas as to what the problem might be? He also said it has...

    mpg on newer suv ?!

    CHEESYPOOFS, I’m with you. I had a 97 AWD 5.0L and the mileage was always horrible and at the time I was driving 50 miles round trip to work, I really liked it but it had to go. Jeff.

    mpg on newer suv ?!

    Boggs1227, are you doing anything special to get that kind of MPG? I have a 1994 XLT and I’m only getting 13mpg around town, I don’t think it will improve 11mpg by getting on the highway though. Maybe after I rebuild the spare motor I have I will get better mileage. But was wondering if...

    Seafoam in crankcase

    I am no expert so take this for what it's worth. I would be cautious about adding Seafoam or any other solvent to the crankcase. The reason being if it is a high mileage motor and was owned by someone else before you, they might not have changed the oil as it should have been done leading to...

    Apache Tires?

    While I have found the same info you have provided about General tires, I would like to say I had a set of Apache's on my 94 Cherokee and it was un stoppable in the snow while on the road and in some fairly nasty mud while deer hunting. I never had any problem with vibration or any bad...

    1992 and 1994 Drive train?

    I just bought a 1994 Explorer XLT 4.0 auto 4X4 with 206,000 on the clock, I also bought a 1992 XLT 4.0 4X4 thinking the drive train would be the same so I could go thru the 92 motor and put it in the 94. Is there any difference in the motor, transmission or transfer case for these two trucks...
