    Can’t get it running!

    Ok so we tried Ether, and she ran for a second. I’m really thinking it’s the fuel pump, but we are going to research what prong has power when it is getting juice to run. We did check that connector near pump when this first happened and I recall one of the prongs being hot -lighting test light...

    Can’t get it running!

    It looks like the check engine does not light unless cranking, then lights up. I do not believe the pump is priming when ignition first on. I’m kind of suspecting the fuel pump as being the culprit but the check engine light thing is confusing. Thanks for info, I will have a look later today...

    Can’t get it running!

    Hello fellow Explorer enthusiaststs! So my boy has custody of the Explorer now. He was out earlier in the year and she died. I went there and it seemed as if the fuel pump wasn’t powering, but it would crank, with spark. We had to get it towed home and then it immediately started, then didn’t...

    LD50 Full-size axle thread `93 Ex

    Hello fellow Explorer enthusiasts! I am officially not an Explorer owner anymore, BUT the Explorer is still in the family. I have gifted it to my son Riley, who turned 25 this August. One of the great things about sharing all my work here is we now have a record of all the various parts and...

    2020 Ford Bronco!!

    Me too, Was also comparing my first gen engine to the 2.3 EcoBoost Much more power in the EcoBoost, it’s amazing how far engines have come, in the two door this might not be too bad..

    2020 Ford Bronco!!

    Apparently the insider had this to say about the interior: "All of our early production-intent prototypes have interior plastics like that. They are missing the final texture and as a result are very smooth and shiny. Don't worry, the production vehicles won't have plastics like that."

    2020 Ford Bronco!!

    I’m getting excited. (This is a concept photo of course) -the recent Ford teaser of a two door silhouette, which is what I want, unless I don’t... kind of not happy that the rumour is I can only get the 2.3L 4-cyl. And not a 6 cyl... Or will that come out next year? can’t wait to see these!

    Big blue won’t run, I’m confused..

    Hah! Figured it out. My alarm system has an ignition interruptor -and the alarm speaker is broken. So I inadvertently unlocked the truck without disabling the alarm, and since there is no sound, everything was blinking. Back in business

    Big blue won’t run, I’m confused..

    So I’ve been getting ready for the new season and I ran the explorer for a while the other day. When I turned it off, the door chime went off constantly and the left blinker is stuck on. Started troubleshooting today and the blinker is still blinking and door chime still chiming when battery is...

    Second Gen roof racks same as first Gen?

    Hello fellow Explorer enthusiasts! Can anyone confirm whether the first gen and second gen roof racks are the same dimensions? Reason I ask is I am selling a custom set of roof racks that I designed for my 93, which someone with a 97 has inquired about. Thanks all!

    LD50 Full-size axle thread `93 Ex

    10 years since axle swap? Whaaat? Pretty sure it's ten years this summer. Was out on weekend and my driver's side bearing on the 9 inch rear end came apart and the axle started to walk out of the housing. So I will have to replace those BEFORE they go. I reckon ten years was a good run on them...

    Engine dies, won't start, then starts.

    Hey all. Stalled today and wouldn't start for a half hour. It's been an intermittent problem that has been plaguing me. Last year it seemed to stop and run fine, then I parked it for the winter. Been fine till today. When it stalled it would turn over fine, almost start but not quite. Lots of...

    LD50 1st gen Rusty rocker panel bodywork - rockerpanel replacement

    Hi Jon, very cool that you found sport panels, thery always seemed hard to find. I would say you need all three of the pieces you showed in the photo. Your rust is extensive, and you should have a good look to ensure the panels will get it all. I am concerned about your body mount points too...

    Dexron V1 (6) in M5OD ?

    The label said replaces Mercon 3, and Castrol website says slightly different that Dexron V but compatible. Apparently Mercon is unavailable now? Anyway I put it in there, after reading up a bit more, couldn't really find anything definitive on it though.

    Dexron V1 (6) in M5OD ?

    Hey, got some tranny fluid today to change it out in my manual '93. They gave me Dexron -V1 I never heard of that before. Just doing my due diligence here before I change the fluid. Can't seem to find reference to it on the site. Ummmm... Is it backwards compatible? -do I have to worry?

    Engine dies, won't start, then starts.

    Hey all! Been running like a champ. but had a very weird issue yesterday. After a good couple hour run up a mountain and back I was putting along a forest road; low speed, level. Explorer stalled dead as if the engine was just turned off. Tried starting, and wouldn't catch. Popped the...
