    Where is the fuel pump relay located on a 91 splorer??? My fuel pump will not shut off, even with key off. I have to pull the pump relay fuse or battery cable to get the pump to shut off. I'm thinking a stuck relay.

    D35 Making Noise

    I have a 1991 XL with Warn manual hubs. About 2 years ago I put a powertrax no slip in my front D35. I did the C-Clip elimination posted either here or the Ranger Station. Ever since I get a low grumbling type noise with the 4X4 engaged. It is much quieter in 2 high with the hubs still locked...

    Bad MAF's

    My 91 XL has had a ongoing rough idle problem since the day I got it 4 years ago. I put a reman long block in it last summer, still idles like S$#T. With the MAF plugged in it idles around 500 and rough like a vacuum leak. I un-plug the MAF it idles high around 900, but much smoother. The MAF is...

    Carb Cleaner

    Does anyone know where to get the old Berryman's B9 formula carb cleaner???? The stuff I'm looking for came in a White gallon can with a Blue and Red label. The liquid was milky white and would strip the skin off you hands. It had a nasty smell and would make your hands tingle instantly if you...

    2 annoying problems

    Check out my sig for the mods on my rig. The first problem I'm having is a nasty vibration at any where from 55-75 mph. Every time I have the tires rebalanced it just changes the speed where I get the shake. The ENTIRE truck shakes like a tire about to blow apart. The vibration has...

    Valve cover gaskets

    I'm doing valve cover gaskets on my friends 91 OHV. Are the Fel-Pro Perma Dri gaskets as good as the factory gaskets?? I've heard a few times this motor hates the aftermarket valve cover gasket's and will leak in short order.

    T-Case or Tranny Dead???

    Is there any way to check if the transfer case is bad? I have a 91' 4X4 A4LD, I put it in gear and nothing but a "Humming" when I rev the motor. Trans is full no bad smell to fluid and it's clear red.

    Torq Converter Question

    I'm thinking of swapping my 91 manual trans to an automatic. I've been told the manual trans engine has a slightly different cam profile. This gives it a little more "PEP" with a manual trans by increasing ( it actually just slightly lowers the peak torque RPM) the low end torque. This seems to...

    Rapidly Fluctuating Temp

    Last June I put a Motorcraft Longblock in my 91. Ever since, my coolant temp gauge jumps rapidly between the "O' in "NORMAL" and cold. The thermostat is the 198F that came with the longblock. Over the last few days the temp fluctuation has been MUCH higher, now it shoots up to the "M" and...

    Fan Shroud?

    Are the Manual Trans, and Automatic Trans Fan shrouds the same? I have a Manual trans, but I put the bigger 2 Row Automatic Radiator in it (better cooling in the Hell hole I live in). Now the fan no longer fits, it rubs on the shroud.
