Last Weds. around dark as I was heading home from college (taking automotive courses), I was just about 1 mile away from home and bam! a deer jumps right out in front of me. I nail him going 60 MPH. Come to a stop, and check the damage. Surprisingly it did hardly any damage. Busted a driving...

Ok so I have 97 Eddie Bauer with the 302. Its a great running motor and has great oil pressure. I've noticed last summer that after I changed the oil, it had a slight knock. If I raise the RPM's the knock gets faster. Its very faint and somewhat hard to hear. And the knock is kinda random, it...

I just read a thread about a quick fix for the blend door since mine is bad. http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183742 It works, but ever since doing so now only my defroster works! I was really careful when cutting and no vacuum line are cut or fallen off. Why would only...

I am replacing the A/C line that goes from the evaperator to the condenser due to the line breaking near the orifice tube. Just ordered from Rock Auto. Question is, do I need any special tools to disconect the line? More importantly, since I'm no expert on A/C, what all do I need to recharge...

Currently I have a 1997 Explorer Eddie Bauer with the 5.0L as many of you probably know. I might be trading it for a 1999 Ford Explorer Sport. Now, the person is some chick that doesnt know much about motors. So I'm not sure if it has the SOHC or the OHV, hopefully I'll take a peak at it...

I have a 1997 Explorer with the 5.0. My fuel pump dies in it and I got a new cheapo pump only off ebay. Installed and it worked for maybe 5 miles of driving and it basically quit on me.

Hello, I have a '97 Explorer with a 5.0L in it. Not to long ago the fuel pump gave out and so i ordered another pump and put it in. It ran great the first day, but since the first day, it just will not revv over 2500-3000RPM and it will die if i give it gas. If i just let my foot rest on the...

Hello, I have a 1997 Explorer with the 5.0L and 4R70W tranny. Just lately, my 2nd gear started to slip at top end acceleration, like when i go to pass a car i floor it and it shifts to 2nd and it does nothing but slip around 3600RPM and up. Are my cluth packets worn out and its time for a...

Hello all, I have a 1997 Explorer with the 5.0L in it. Want to start a thread on easy modifications you can do. One mod I have done ( not really a improvement ) is taken off the air intake silencer. Not really any extra pony's, but it does sound throatier and it might have helped me get 1...

My front driveshaft is completely shot. So I took it off to make sure thats what it was. Sure enough it was. But I was wondering if it is ok to leave the d/s off on a AWD? If you do, won't it burn up the viscous coupling? I already know about the park not working with it, but i want to be sure...

I have a 1997 Explorer with the 5.0L. Best vehicle I could ever want! Well the other day I thought I would go have some fun mudding in it because it had just rained and there were some good puddles.
