    Intermittent Starting Problem

    Reporting back with problem solution... it was a relay, but not for the fuel pump... for the EEC. It was a hassle figuring that out as the one time the truck was not starting, I finally realized the CEL was off with KOEO. When I switched the relay from the A/C (presumably good) with EEC and...

    Intermittent Starting Problem

    My 94 will usually start, no problem, runs fine. Lately, every now and again, and I think only when warm, the engine cranks fine but will not start. Fuel line inertia switch is always engaged/no issue. Switched relays of like kind, still no start. No smell of fuel after cranking. Couldn't...

    Trouble Code 157 MAF

    Yep. I cleaned it. What's the next logical step?

    Trouble Code 157 MAF

    CEL came on last week, and idle became rough. KOEO: Code 111 (No faults on KOEO). I only get one CM Code 157 (Mass Air Flow signal is/was low or grounded – MAF). No other codes. I took it out. It appeared fine, not dirty. I cleaned it with spray solvent. Put it back in, no change. I...

    Squeaky Front Disk Brakes

    Yeah, I greased the ridges and slides, as well as the surfaces where the calipers meet the anchor plates, even the grooves on the anchor plates where the inboard pads slide into. The squeals are not consistant, but come and go randomly.

    Squeaky Front Disk Brakes

    I know there are a lot of threads on this after doing a search, but I didn't find one that quite matched my situation, and was wondering what everyone here thought... I just installed newly turned rotors, new Bendix Titaniumetallic II pads, Napa anti-brake squeal compound on the backs of the...

    No Brake Lights, no Hazards

    Bad Brake Switch? I had a couple of brake light switches go :frustrate. Fortunately, they are cheap and easy to replace. It is located behind the pedal, held in place with a pin (if I recall). Look for the wiring harness behind the brake pedal, and it will be obvious. I think they are...

    IS my 4x4 working??

    You can leave the hubs locked, but it isn't recommended. At the same time, leaving them locked for the day during a snow storm while in either 2 or 4 wheel drive isn't going to harm them. I believe it is more a matter of poor fuel economy while locked. I recommend going to the manual hubs...

    exhaust install

    I installed the flowmaster system designed for the X (from Jegs) myself. I swore off doing exhausts years ago, but it looked so easy, I couldn't pass it up. It was easy, although removing the old studs at the cat was somewhat of a challenge. It sounds better than OEM, but not too loud...

    Flowmaster Force II cat back exhaust

    I just put on the Force II with 50. It's a little louder than stock, but still sort of quiet. I love it. Just what I expected, and the self install went well. Bought the whole shabang from Jegs.com for $150 delivered. Not the cheapest way to replace your exhaust, but you get what you pay...

    auto hubs conversion

    Could be the auto hubs are starting to go... you won't have ANY front wheel drive if 1 hub goes because as stated above, front differential is not a limited slip (posi). We really only ever have three wheel drive, that's only if you have limited slip dif in the rear. No manufacturer (except...

    Flowmaster install questions

    Update: Installed this kit last weekend. Mine is a '94 XLT 4x4 4-door assembled in May 1994. I had a few issues to deal with, here are the cliff notes. Removal: I used a jack just to make it easier to access. The bolts at the flanged connection between the connecter pipe (to the muffler)...

    A case of the clunks...

    If one of the hubs are shot, then the front wheels won't turn in 4WD because there's no limited slip differential in the front...if one hub is bad neither front wheel will turn in 4WD. If the front wheels are turning in 4WD, it's not likely to be your hubs. If you feel you need a used auto...

    Flowmaster install questions

    Thanks again for responding, all. You answered all my questions. (Did anyone ever mention this site is great?) I'll follow up and let you know how it went. Harry

    Flowmaster install questions

    Thanks, John. I'm sure it will be obvious when I get under there to do it, but I want to understand something... the directions say to trim the inlet pipe, not the tailpipe. I am unclear which pipe you found needed trimming based on the support clamp location. Thanks again.

    Flowmaster install questions

    Thanks for the input, guys... I guess I won't cut the cat flange studs. That may be a b$tch trying to get them off... since thats the first thing to do, I'll try that first, if they don't turn, I'll pass it to my mechanic. huskyfan23, was your kit the FM 17227? Did you have to shorten the...

    Flowmaster install questions

    Sorry if this has been covered... did a quick search and didn't find the answers I'm looking for. Just received Flowmaster System 17227 from Jegs today (Force II Delta 50 with pipes, clamps). Has anyone installed this kit themselves without use of a lift? I was planning on backing onto...
