I'm looking at adding a heater to the cooling system for cold weather trips. The options I'm considering are the tank heater(in-line w/ heater hose) or the block heater(replacement of a soft plug). Most of the search info seems of be about the block heater, it looks like a lot of work in tight...

A couple of times I some tense moments starting my stock '92 Explorer. Both times I was sking in the Sierras and the truck was sitting in the parking lot. It wasn't real cold(below 0) maybe 10-15, but the wind was blowing pretty good-30-40mph. When I'd turn the key there would be a series of...

Having just changed the t-stat on my '92 Exp, 4.0L, I thought I'd share a few things I learned that I didn't notice anywhere else on the forums. See following for excellent description of removal procedures: http://www.explorerforum.com/Singleton/web/pages/thermostat.html As discussed...

Someone tried to steal my '91 XLT and Broke the Ignition switich. It looks like they jamed a screw drive into the door lock to gain access, pryed off the chrome thumb ring around the ignition lock(it's was laying on the floor) then stuck the screw into the switch to try to start it! :( What...
