hose

help indentifying the sensor or control module for a 2000 ford explorer xlt i think its the IACat the top of the engine above the intake. there is a a hard plastin tube that goes from the main intake tube to the what i believe is the IAC (idke air control valve) that has 4 screws. but...

The original hose that runs from the valve cover to the intake tube tore years ago on my 2000 OHV. I replaced it with heater hose but it ended up tearing the intake tube as the heater hose would always pull towards the air box. I recently found an intake tube in good shape at the junkyard and...

I noticed over the years that this part of the AC hose is covered in what looks like oil. It’s gotten worse and the AC feels warmer. Has anyone had a leak in that area before? I’m wondering how common it is. I see the replacement on rock auto for $50 but I’d like to get an opinion before I order it.

my transmission cooler hoses have 245,x.. miles on them. Should the hoses be replaced the next time the transmission is serviced?

Hi All, I recently purchased an '08 Ford explorer (former government vehicle) it's got 80K miles and I don't have specifics on its maintenance besides it oil changes. I have two questions, what are some parts and areas or maintenance you recomend I check out and see if its been replaced or...

Suddenly, from one day to the next, my 2006 Ford Explorer overheated. The mechanic says that I need a new heater hose which is like "one giant octopus". Cost for labor and part is $650. Does any of this seem normal?

Hi again posting here because of an issue, this time is, the part where the coolant reservoir hose connects to the radiator broke, and the the part that connects the water pump hose to the radiator also broke, probably the entire radiator assembly or just the plastic part? heres the video that...

Hey everyone, just want to say thanks for all the helpful information through the years, but now I have a question that I have been struggling to find an answer. I am working to solve a coolant leak issue in my 2002 Sport Trac. Over the summer, I replaced the radiator, upper and lower hoses...

Is anyone on here running one of these...

I have a couple of questions. 1. Which of the two hoses is the heater inlet hose? I am installing a prestone back-flush tee, and it needs to be on the inlet hose. 2. My heater control valve is not where I have seen in before on other similar vehicles (near the firewall). It is down close to...

I’m looking for a replacement, it broke off and I don’t know the name of it or where to find. White quick connect from evap purge valve to intake I believe

I am in the process of replacing the original radiator on my 98 Exploder 5.0L. Figured I'd go ahead and replace water pump while I was in there since there was tons of rust and grit in the coolant system. (flushed system with prestone kit before removing busted radiator) While removing hoses...

The hose that comes off of my valve cover and connects to my air intake is occasionally slipping off, I've secured it with clamps. I've been unable to find the part online for replacement so I was wondering if anyone knows what the part name/ part number is? Could this be the cause of an oil...

My 1994 explorer (4 door limited) has been having some troubles. My idle is not even, I have had the air tubes pop off the tree with Transmission fluid on them. I have looked around and see that the modulator needs to be replaced. I am changing spark plugs and wires. I am heard that the PCV...

Hello everybody! A few months ago my 2005 Explorer Sport Trac gear's got in fire and burned all the hoses that are connected to the engine. As the hoses got completely burned a replacement is needed. Over 9 hoses that I need i've found 6 over the internet but there are 3 hoses that appears as...

Hi all, This is on a 2003 Explorer XLT 4.0L V6 Turned my air on on the first really hot day (85F+) left it run and was warm. So I charged it up, worked great, then on the second day after that it was running warm again. It runs somewhat cool when the temperature outside is cool, but I'm...

Hey everyone, I've had a small coolant leak for about a month now. It doesn't leak on the driveway but I can see it running down the side of the engine on the passenger side. It leaks right below the alternator. The shop that I usually go to says that there's a plastic elbow that's leaking. They...

Hello: I've got a 2000 Explorer 4x4 that the passenger side front caliper was locking up. We bought this used and drive it quite a bit so I bought new calipers, rotors, pads and hoses. Everything went on great except for the hoses. The originals were twisted and the repair manual says they...

Guys, I need your help. My good friend, who isn't very mechanically inclined has a leak on his explorer's lower radiator hose area. I'm trying to get him back on the road ASAP, and need help diagnosing by this video what is going on. It look to me that the hose is leaking near the right (I the...

:eek: Do anybody know where this hose should be connected... I was lubing my bolts to get ready for a bushing change and find this guy just hanging around.

I have bought replacement tubing for my windshield washer fluid hose. I got it connected to the pump but I have no idea where to hook it up to get it to the sprayers I've looked and looked and looked. If anyone could let my know that would be great thank you:)

1996 Explorer XLT 4.0L OHV One of my AC hoses is cracked and the refrigerant has leaked out. The compressor is new about a year ago. I've order the replacement Discharge and Suction Line set. I'll probably replace the lines this weekend. I've searched the forum for guidance; my question...

Thanks for reading this, my Ohv X is leaking coolant pretty bad right now. I've had this problem for about 8 months now but never this bad. Whenever I turn the truck off it dumps coolant, it doesn't overheat though, the temperature gauge stays halfway. I always thought I just had to get air out...

On a trip camping I was towing our boat up to the lake and I had noticed that the Temp. Gauge had shot up to H and so I pulled over and opened the hood and on the passenger side of the engine, antifreeze was leaking and a hose had broken in two, however the hose was connected by a black plastic...

Hey everyone, I have a 2000 Explorer Sport with the OHV engine. For the past year or so, I've had a coolant leak but I could never identify where it was. I finally found the spot, and I took a picture: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/638/20110426132935.jpg/ The leak is coming from...

2001 Ranger XLT Automatic sprang a coolant leak today from a pinhole in the fitting that the lower hose connects to on the top side of the hose. there is a temp sensor screwed into the same fitting on top... I have found every other part for the cooling system, but not this fitting. Is it...

I'm posting this as I believe that it might be helpful to others. :D I still haven't found my vacuum leak

Hello Everyone, While "exploring" the underside of my '92 XLT engine, I came across this hose: Can someone tell me what it is and how/where to connect it? This is how it was positioned when I first discovered it: I traced it to I believe the bottom of the air cleaner unit, underneath...

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone here knows how to remove the air hoses that go into the rear shock absorbers for my 2000 XLT? Also I havent removed the shockers but apparently my replacement Motorcraft branded Air shocks ( rear shocks ) dont have the electrical wires or anywhere to plug in...

Newbe, can't find links to help with installing a new radiator hose the upper & lower myself (non- experienced with mtc.) I went to Ford this morning and picked up the two hoses. There were no sleeves or clamps included. What do I do next. Is this hard to change? Do I need tools...

In the midst of getting parts together for a radiator / thermostat / water outlet job on my truck, the decision of what clamps to use has come up. I've been using the old standard worm drive clamp forever, but especially with some of the ones I have been getting, they do not seem to work too...

My girlfriend was jumping my 2nd gen 5.0 Exploder and When I got under to look at it, there was Trans fluid leaking out of the two pipes going to and from the radiator. The leak is coming from the pipes themselves, not the fittings. I was wondering what the quickest way to fix this would be...

1st Gen transmission cooler lines are heavily rusted.
