Thanks Flatlander, and yes I only hear the tick at low RPM from idle to about 2000rpm. I thought the oil pump would be a little fishy but you think the tick may be the timing chain or lifters. I'll let them know when I bring it in. This will be interesting and I'll post the owrk that was done...

I'm also starting to hear a tick, tick, tick when then engine is idling. Could it be the lifters?

How do you think I can get the oil pump done under warranty? They'll only be replacing parts that need replacing. Any suggestions on how to get them do do it?

Thanks for the tips. The only difference is, my warranty is strictly a powertrain warranty is there anything that I may be able to bring to the mechanics attention such as internal trans or engine parts?

I scheduled an appointment to have warranty work done on my 94 xlt 4x4 for this coming Monday. I know there is tranny fuild leaking from between the tranny and the engine and also I'll be getting the front bearings done. My concern is that the truck has 5000kms left before the Ford ESP...

Where's the pics, this sounds like ingenuity at its best!

I like to try and do things myself. This way I learn. Whenever I'm at my buddy's Muffler shop I always watch to see how they do things and try to learn. Engine Oil and Tranny fluid is pretty straight forward however being my first 4x4 I'd like to know how to do the transfer case and DIff's...

Very good suggestions. I really appreciate the advice. I reset my computer tonight so lets see how that goes. By the way, what is a K&N FIPK? Is it just a regular K&N filter that drops in to the stock housing or is it something of a modified filter and housing? Just wondering......Thanks

Once I change the PCV valve and wires (I'm also considering cleaning the MAF sensor) should I reset the computer by unplugging the battery?

Oops, sorry I forgot a couple things. My gears are 3.73 and my trans fluid does need changing. My tank holds 72 litres. Thanks

Thanks for the quick response, looks like I posted correctly. I bought the truck in December with 142,000km(now has 153,000). I have a new air filter(paper Canadian Tire brand) I have done two oil changes(5w30). Haven't touched the plug wires yet or dif fluid. Trans fluid is still the same...

Hey guys and gals. I'm new to this board so if this doesn't post right I'll hopefully perfect the posting soon. My question is strictly out of curiosity as to how other explorer owners find their fuel consumption. I have a 94 XLT with 154,000kms, stock everything except for a cat back system...
