    95 ford explorer sport manual swap

    let me know if i can help at all. its not that hard of a project. worst part for me was installing the clutch pedal haha. well i guess learning that the plate that goes between the engine and tranny didn't fit was rough, and figuring out that my start was too close to the flywheel was rough too...

    95 ford explorer overheating

    i dont have the old one anymore. i took it all apart piece by piece to check it all out haha. i herd that my gauge might be acting funny because of an air bubble that is stuck behind the thermostat. i tried my best to bleed "the bubble" out through the sensor could this be my problem?

    95 ford explorer overheating

    i think that you are both right. i just got back from the shop to get the actual temp reading. and its fine. the gauge is just off. all the other gauges are actually more accurate than my old cluster. as far as speed and fuel goes anyway. i replaced it with one that had a purple back side to it...

    overdrive light blinking clunky shifting down into the starting gear.

    hi, i have recently had a problem with my overdrive light blinking and a clunky shift into the starting gear. i have looked around and i suspect that the problem could be the torque converter, but I'm not sure so i thought i should ask. i have checked my fluids and they are fine. the clunky...

    95 explorer sport 4WD low and 4WD high lights flashing. 4WD stops working.

    thanks for all of the help! when i leave the house, i put it in 4 high. it lasts me long enough to get on the regular roads and my 4 wheal works for about 10 miles (maybe) and then it stops working until the next restart. so from what i understand, it isn't the lockup switch. do you think i will...
