    Trans not shifting???

    If it's not one thing, it's another. I have a code for the DPFE, I plan on installing a new one tomorrow. On my way home today, my truck did not want to shift at all. I was at nearly redline on the highway! If I let off the gas and let it drop to 3k or so, SOMETIMES it would kick down to...

    327 Code KOEO...

    Well, after my truck has been sputtering, sounding like an exhaust leak, I decided to check my codes. With the Key On, Engine Off, the only code I got was 327. Which is "EGR valve Pressure transducer/Position Sensor circuit below minimum voltage". Anyone know if this code would cause my...

    Exhaust leak, but NO exhaust leak?

    Well, this shltbox is at it again. I started the truck yesterday to go to work and immediately knew something was wrong. It sounds like I have an exhaust leak, yet I don't. I did a thurough search for a leak and found nothing. The motor seems to run 100% still. When starting from a stop I...

    Pass. side 4x4 hub locking up???

    Over the last couple days i've noticed my pass side hub will start "whirrrrring". If I stop and backup, it will usually go away. Yet it will do it again at some point. Any idea on how to take care of this without removing all that crap Can I just disconnect the motor on the transfer case? or...

    NO dash lights, NO tail lights...

    So, I go to drive home tonight from work and flipped my lights on. My headlights came on, but no dash lights. The HVAC lights didn't come on either. I pulled the switch on/off a bunch of times, but no luck. So I figured no biggie and drove it home. After getting home, I realized my tails weren't...

    BYPASS Trans Cooler?

    I have about 6-8 small leaks on my trans cooler lines. I've been chasing them all over, and new ones keep popping up. My question is, can I just cut the 2 lines by the trans and connect the 2 lines via the proper grade hose? Will that work? I honestly only drive it 30 miles at the most each...

    Hard start when the truck is Warm?

    I have a hard time starting the truck if I run in the store and try to start it up. It will start, it just takes an extra 5 seconds or so of turning it over? The battery is new, and the connections are clean and tight. Any ideas? Gotta get it ready for it's season of use!

    Trans fluid leak up front...

    I had a pretty bad trans leak coming from up front by the trans cooler. I found a cracked line, and replaced it with hose. I still have a leak, but I can't locate it. It's dripping onto the front crossmember area. Just rear of the radiator. I can't for the life of me find this friggin leak...

    Orange/Pink/Milkish colored Power Steering fluid?

    So I haven't driven my truck in about a week and a half. I started it up the other day and as soon as I turn the wheel, I hear the PS groaning. So I pop the hood and check the pump, and it's nearly empty. I filled it up and all the fluid inside is a milky/orangeish color. I can see the steering...

    Strange BUCKING...Vacuum leak?

    So I was stopped at a traffic light on Friday when my car started bucking back and forth. Felt like someone was behind me pushing the truck repeatedly. I noticed a slight hiss every time I touched the gas pedal when I left in the morning. Yet, everything ran just fine. That is, until the...

    Multifunction Switch.... DIFFERENT QUESTION

    Ok, so my blinker flashes normally then it'll flash quickly. Both sides to it. Front and rear. Pretty sure it's the multifunction switch. My question is: Will a 94-04 MUSTANG Switch fit? They look identical. I have 1 sitting in my parts pile. LOL if no one knows, I'll go out and try it...

    OEM KEYLESS ENTRY HELP...Tried searching

    O.K. forgive me if there's already a thread for this, but I tried searching. My 94 XLT did not come with the Keyless Entry option. I'm wondering what exactly I need to install the OEM Keyless in my truck. Is it just the module and a key fob? I know with mustangs, every car has the same...

    I searched, but all i found were people complaining about low mileage, and others telling them to change their plugs. Soooo...what are the best plugs for my exploder? In my DOHC 4V Cobra, the best plugs are just simply copper Autoloite 764s gapped at .054 So, what are some good plugs...

    Loose steering...

    My steering feels real loose. I turn the wheel 1/4 turn before the truck starts turning. I'd like to adjust the steering box, but I can't budge the damn nut. I sprayed it down with PB Blaster twice a day for a week! All I can get to it with is a stubby wrence. If I try to use a full...

    Steering doesn't move in 4x4...

    OK, so my 4x4 wasn't working at all. So, I swapped in a brand new t.c. motor. Now my 4x4 works EXCELLENT! 1 problem.... When the 4 wheel drive is engaged, my steering wheel doesn't want to turn more than half way. If I turn the wheel all the way (to either side) and try to move, it's as...

    Side Mirrors....STRANGE QUESTION

    I noticed today that my power seide mirrors don't fully work correctly. The Passengers side will go UP and OUT, but when I try to adjust the mirror DOWN or IN, it doesn't move, The Drivers is the same, except it won't adjust IN. But In on the driver's side and OUT on the Pass side is the...

    4x4 SWITCH Question

    OK, so I notice that neither my 4 High or 4 Low lights come on when i push the buttons. My 4x4 doesn't work, and i was assuming it was the motor on the transfer case. Now that I notice the lights don't come on, I'm wondering if it's a different problem. Is it normal for the lights on the...

    I just found a cargo net in the jack area. I'm wondering where it's supposed to mount. I assumed it went on the 4 mounting brackets in the floor, BUT the net only has 3 spots where it hooks up. Any ideas? pics? I feel like a tard:D

    SLOPPY Steering???

    I can turn my steeering wheel 2 inches in either direction before the tires even begin to turn. Has anyone encountered this problem? I believe the steering box is adjustable, right? Loosen the nut, and then turn the knob with a screwdriver, correct? My question is, do I just loosen the nut a...

    "Spongey" brakes???

    Ok guys, I just registered the Explorer the other day, so i've driven it a few times now. i notice the brakes don't really do anything until 1/3 of the way down on the pedal. They seem spongey too. Is this normal on the trucks? I'm going to bleed at least the front brakes, if not all 4. I'm...

    Click noise when starting...

    When I start the car, I get a single kinda loud click noise. It's just one loud click. It sounds like its coming from behind the dash on the passenger's side. The truck still seems to start fine. I'm just wondering what the click is. I want to make sure nothing is wrong before the snow starts...
