Well folks, I just bought a 5.0L stang, an 89 LX, and I figured you guys could tell me the best forum to goto. I know a lot of you guys either have or want one, so who better to ask?

Will the IAC off of a 99 4.0L OHV work on a 91? I have one sitting around and I think mine is pooched.

Alright the mechanic is havin real problems with this. So I figured the ole faithful board might be able to help me out. As some have seen I swapped in a 98/99 motor, brand new, into my 91. Ran like a top, for 519 kilometres. then stalled once, then again down the road. Then it wouldn't run...

Ok my engine came with oil in it...but it doesnt look like oil really... Is it some kind of break in oil? If so how long should I use it? I got the motor ready to start now...welll I already started it..ran fine so how long do I leave it in?

Well, as some of you may know I blew a piston in my ohv. So I got a used one out of an aerostar, was supposed to be low mileage, then, one month later, going down the highway, far from home, pop! well there goes that one, same symptoms as the other one (compression in the oil gallery = blown...

Anybody think it would be strong enough??

Does it need to be sealed on an ohv? Sorry I don't know what year the engine is, I know its 98+ cause the oil pan needed to be changed due to the sensor thing. I'm currently running one of these: http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?target=/egnsearch.asp&N=400330 It has like a foam...

Hey guys, some of you may seen that I blew a piston. Well I'm looking for a used motor and found a couple. What yrs of explorer and aerostare can swap in? How hard is it to swap out the egr? What things need to be changed in the aerostar to ex swap? oilpan? manifolds?

Thats what mechanic bud says I thought I was. Some of you may have seen my problems in other threads on here, well I found my problem. Blown piston...not good.

So all you guys with ping, boost, and compression, what kind do you recommend?

So as I mentioned in another thread, I changed my thermostat. The reason I changed it was because, My dad, My boss, and I all thought it was to blame. Now I feel like having this explorer crushed. Sorry, the symptom is that out of nowhere, it suddenly started to get really hot, almost out of...

Well I couldn't figure out where my oil problem was but now i know. My K&N cone filter was sucking in oil fumes by the looks of it and the engine has been burning them, my air duct tube was coated on the inside with it. Anyways I noticed after I changed my thermostat tonight that the oil fill...

Well, earlier this week I got the power steering pump replaced in my 91. The thing seized up in traffic and spewed fluid everywhere, nice big puddle in the walmart parking lot. Thought I would share the costs involved at the bottom. Anyone know why this might happen? I figured it was the deep...

Found this very interesting. Hope it hasn't been posted before. Dead Link Removed

Hey all, I'm in the middle of doing an oil change, QS High mileage oil, I drained the oil, changed the filter, etc, then I put a 4 litre jug of oil in it, even spilled a little. I checked the dipstick as I always do, and it says I'm not only full, but a hair over full. I let the thing drip for...

Has anybody used this product before? OR maybe know soemthing about it? http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=3224&prmenbr=361

Has anyone replaced the gauges in their explorer? I've always wanted to do that, and I don't mean a colour change, I think some CF autometers would look sic. Would it be real difficult and would I have to change any others sending units besides the oil pressure?

Has anybody ever switched the single speed rear wiper in a 91-94 for the intermittent style used on newer ones? What is involved in changing it over?

I think I'm wasting my time, but is it possible to change the timing without having a chip made? Coil packs suck.

Hey all, I have a job of detailing an 02 F-150 supercrew Lariat tomorrow and I'm wondering what product is the best, and is also widely availible, to use to clean leather and the plastic interior pieces before using a leather protectant like armor-all. Thanks for any replies in advance.

Anybody seen this yet? They call it the Wrangler Unlimited, they stretched out the TJ... Looks kind of goofy to me. Hope I don't get flamed too much for posting a Heep. Here's the link.

Hey all! hows it goin? I thought Id just post to tell you I finished my 5.5 inch lift on my 92 sport. It looks saweet! I also put on a 3inch BL and 36 inch tires! ps im only 18, not bad eh?

ok people im gonna keep this short, mainly because its depressing. dad now has my explorer, and it needs a head gasket change. it has 260 000 km on it, he does not want to pay a shop tho, for obvious reasons, whats involved, how far down does it need to go? its an ohv 1991 btw. thanks in advance.

alright i think ive traced the problem of my not working neon lights in the inside of my truck to the little black box they coem with, which i assume is, or least ive been told is a transformer. does anyone know a way to fix them, or bypass them, are they necessary, can i get a new one with out...

I was going over all my old truckstv tapes, and i got to thinking, has anybody here ever competed in the warn rockcrawling championship, rosser roundup, or other competition not on the show?
