I have a 2008 escape as described above in the title that sometimes what it will do is when you’re driving down the road the steering gets really stiff and goes into manual mode and the engine light starts flashing. Unfortunately I have not been able to pull the code because it only happens for...

My sunroof on my 2002 will open in deflect mode, but will not retract. Could it still be a bad motor?

I need a replacement 4x4 module for my 2002 Explorer with a 4.6L engine. My existing module that is shot has a part number of 1L24-7H473-AG. It also says 4X4CM in big letters on it. I have found several others for sale that the last digits of the part number end in AJ or AK or even some part...

Hey Gang, My 2002 with a 4.6 bucks really bad between 40-50 MPH. She also has vert low acceleration. When I'm coasting own the highway it does just fine. Yesterday I got her up to 95 MPH with no problems. Any idea what's going on? Jaime

This morning I went to start the truck and it started but when I went to put it in the gear it shut right off now the starter won’t engage I checked all the fuses and they are fine any ideas what could be going on is it the neutral safety switch possibly or the starter? I have a 2002 Ford...

2002 Explorer with a 4.6L. Am I possibly looking at a head gasket? There is no smell after I shut her off, and it's pretty strong when running and it looks like steam coming out of the tail pipe even after she's warmed up. She seems to be running pretty well, no loss of power. She does sputter a...

Hi Gang, I just did some major work on the front and the rear of my 2002 Explorer with a 4.6 L engine all wheel drive. I replaced the front hubs all new calipers all new brakes all new rotors and all new ball joints, upper control arms, and tie rod ends in the front. In the back all new wheel...

I have a 2002 4.6L AWD Explorer that I just put all new calipers, brakes, and rotors on the front. When I go to bleed the brakes the pedal goes all the way to the floor. Now mind you I’ve bled many a brake system over the last 30 years and had never had this problem before. So I do know the...

Hey Gang, The AC in my 02, 4.6L XLT is strange. On the driver's side vents the AC is ice cold, on the passengers side it's like the compressor isn't even running. Would the blend door cause this? Thanks

Hi Gang, My Ac compressor locked up after 200K miles so I'm looking at replacing it this weekend. I have a new compressor, drier, orifice tube, and all new seals. My first question is, I know I need to add AC oil to my compressor, how much do I add? My second question, where on God's green...

Hey Guys, I was in the process of taking things apart to replace the timing chains and all related components because I had a horrible chain slap that the right side chain was rubbing so much that it made a hole in the timing cover. My question here is the about making sure that I am timed...

I just developed a ticking noise on my 2002 with a 4.6 engine. The best way to describe it is by listening to the short video I just took of the noise. It does seem to be louder on the right side. Any ideas? Here is a link to the sound on my google drive since I can't upload the file to this...

I have a 2002 Explorer with a 4.6L engine and disk brakes all the way around. The other day I came home and the rear driver's side brake was smoking really bad. I found a lot of dirt and mud and gravel caked in the wheel rim and I washed it all off and could not see what the issue was. I sprayed...

when I activate the cruise control it does activate but sometimes it keep accelerating like I'm holding down the + button but I'm not. Also if I hit the OFF button sometimes it doesn't respond, the only way to shut it off is to hit the brakes. And sometimes no matter what button I press it just...

I just got my 2002 Explorer a few months ago and I'm noticing a few oddities with the electrical system. First of all when I exit the vehicle I notice that the dome light stays on for quite a bit of time, over 10 minutes. For now I just use the dimmer switch to turn off the dome light when I...

Hi Gang, I'm back after being gone for several years. Well after a nasty divorce and loosing pretty much everything, my Mustang and my Mountaineer, just yesterday I picked up a nice 2002 Explorer XLT with a 4.6L and only 140K miles on it. God I missed my truck!! I plan on keeping her for a long...

I just got this truck for next to nothing. The engine is sound and rides beautifully. When I baby the accelerator and take it slow to bring it up to speed it runs with no problems. When I accelerate moderately to hard I get a loud hard knock that comes from under the truck. If I let off the...

Hey Gang, I have a strange occurrence with my 98 Explorer Sport. All of the sudden my parking lights will not shut off. The headlights work fine, but I cannot get the parking lights to turn off. The only way is to pull fuse #11 under the hood. I even pulled the headlight switch and they still...

Hi Gang, Son and I have a 98 Explorer Sport with a 4.0 engine that has the "X" engine code. The engine is starting to give out, so we thought of dropping a V8 in her and maybe going with a police Interceptor or a modified 302. What are we into here? I know this has been done. The nice thing...

I am having one heck of a time removimg the sprig clips on the fuel pump. I am using the correct tool but they will not come loose. what am I doing wromg? I have a 98 Exploerer with a 4.0L engine.

First of all, the specs. It's a 98 with a 4.0L with the "X" engine code. SOHV. It's a 2 wheel drive automatic with 135K miles on it. I had just gotten on the interstate and was accelerating up to highway speed when the engine just cut off. I had electrical power, so I tried to restart it but it...

I had my truck do something really funny a few weeks ago. While driving about an hour from home, the dash light that indicates that the OD on the transmission is on/off started flashing. I didn't touch the button on the shift lever to initiate this by messing with the switch. It just started...
