    How do I remove window motors?

    Hello ... I live in Florida and now 3 of 4 electric windows don't work! The dealer sold me nylon rollers 3 per unit since my motors still run they just "clunk - clunk - clunk" vs go up or down. I've removed door panels but couldn't locate screws to remove motor drive units? What gives I repaired...

    Belt tensioner gave out...

    Great price!!! WoW ... Great price, unfortunately at the time I needed one the dealership was the only game in town. I called NAPA, and any and all other part sources and it was a "dealer only" item at the time. I'm sure I paid something like $78.-86 or something like that - I recall not...

    Better A/C Performance

    More Cold with less air flow! Hey Photog ... Your air flow on maximum is exactly what I'm talking about!!! When you clean your evaporator and believe me if its never been cleaned it'll have a build up of crud because there isn't a cabin filter assembly! After cleaning the EVAPORATOR the air...

    Better A/C Performance

    Wait ... I MEAN the evaporator not the condensor. Everyone with common sense can quickly check the cleanlyness of their condensor. I doubt many people actually pull their air system fan motor and visually check their evaporator in that black box. They get extremely dirty and can be easily...

    Better A/C Performance

    More air flow! Hello ... I own a 94 Explorer XLT and the cold air didn't seem as cold or efficent as it used to be, especially at idle in a parking lot. I had put aluminum window screen material (attached w/safety wire) in front of the condensor/oil cooler/radiator when the SUV was new, so the...

    Belt tensioner gave out...

    Hello ... My wife has/bought new a 94 Explorer XLT and just after warranty expired the belt tensioner broke and fell off.

    This has been beaten to death, but....

    Hello ... It's none of my business but why on earth don't you just grind off the rivits and be done with it? If you use grade 8 bolts it's as strong or stronger than stock and a big job made simple! Whatever ... don't use rubber they only lasted me 50K. The poly's are still going at 70K. Later...

    PS leak in my Vovlo...

    Hello Jon .. I think it's easy, similiar to installing front struts or universal joints. After installing rack the car will need to be aligned to complete the repair. The job should add about $250-500 towards the price of the Volvo when the job is done and future owner has receipt for the...

    Good Ford pick-n-pull near Gainesville Florida

    Rear disc brakes Woops ... I almost forgot to mention that the main purpose of a rear end change is the desire for rear disc brakes. Axle ratio change at the same time is preferred. Sorry I didn't include it originally. Gary

    Good Ford pick-n-pull near Gainesville Florida

    Hello folks. I normally subscribe to Volvo boards to help with owning a 1982 Turbo Volvo since purchased new. My wife owns a 1994 Explorer XLT - V6 with drum rear brakes and a horrible 3.08 axle ratio. I'm hoping to find a 95+ rear end with a 3.55 or 3.73 axle ratio for better performance and...

    Air Conditioning Problems

    This is a pretty basic observation I noticed when the wife's 94XLT didn't seem to be cooling as well as when it was new! It didn't seem to really move as much air thru the vests, thus over the evaporator coil as well. Before breaking out the gauges and getting serious I first attempted to check...
