intake

Hey guys, last Sunday I took my ’93 Explorer XLT 4x4 through a shallow river. Didn’t seem too deep, but on the passenger side there’s some sort of air inlet that connects to the exhaust — didn’t even know it was there. The second I hit the water, the engine died instantly. At first, I figured...

Anyone want a relatively new K&N intake system? I also have an Airaid throttle body spacer and waterproof Outwears cover. Has under 5,000 miles on them. Asking $350 shipped for all 3. K&N #77-2573KP. I also have an SCT X4 tuner w/ Brenspeed 91-octane tune for the same vehicles. Asking $350...

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 have a 2010 explorer xlt with the 4.0 sohc in it. I built a new intake for it and ordered a 2.5 inch maf housing for the sensor. It keeps throwing the o2 sensor running too lean. I plan to tune it to a larger maf later on but for the moment I just wanted the sounds of the new intake. I...

All the junkyards around me do not have the intake or they are charging over $125 for a set. I found this one for $125 + free shipping. Worth it? Looks kinda rough. Is there any decent after market intakes? I have yet to find an after market that looks good to me. 4.0l OHV Thank you

I recently bought a 2008 4.6L Explorer. I took the intake manifold off to replace the seals as well as to make room for some other work. When I went to reinstall the manifold I noticed there were two vacuum line nipples on the back of the manifold, right next to the actuator. The top nipple has...

I need to replace my upper intake gaskets that are leaking. I looked in my old Haynes manual and these are the torque specs. They seem kind of low with the upper intake nuts torqued to 12 ft lbs. While the studs to the block are torqued to just 84 inch lbs which is 7 ft lbs. The other torque...

Hi all...Im helping repair my sister-n-law's 2006 Explorer XLT 4.0 sohc v6. Its got "running lean" code and "random multiple misfire" code. Ive replaced the ignition "coil/box", intake o-rings, fuel filter, plugs and wires. It starts up just fine (when cold), then upon warming up, starts...

Hello ya'll. I have a 2006 Explorer with a 4.6. The intake I currently have is the plastic top with the bottled on aluminum charge motion plates. It currently has a leak that I believe is coming from the charge motion plate seals. My question is, can I replace the intake manifold with one from a...

Hi, all. New member here with a few questions for the pros, but I wanted to offer my experience on an ABS issue for those who may be having a similar problem. I recently purchased a 2006 Explorer EB 4.0 with 125K miles in need of some repairs for my soon-to-be 16 year old. The car appears to...

Is anyone on here running one of these...

I am working on my 2005 Ford Explorer XLT to change the fuel pressure and temperature sensor which is under the upper half of the intake manifold. Based on what I have discovered, there are 8 total T30 Torx head bolts securing the upper half of the intake manifold. I managed to get off 6 of...

Hi All, This is my first post in this amazing forum, this is a great source of info I live in Dubai and I just got a 2008 explorer 4.0 and I really like the drive, I wanted to improve the engine performance without touching the stock engine and I guess this would be mainly on the intake and...

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

2004 v6 4.0 SOHC (EBauer Trim). Searching for consistent info on what the torque specs for the upper intake manifold eight bolts are. The CD guide that I have has conflicting info, as the bolts shown are the Isolator bolts (9S479), but not the long threaded end bolts that are used to hold the...

I just finished digging down to put in new intake manifold gasket and replace some cracked vacuum hoses. Fire it up and will not run. I found that I have left a vacuum line open but have no clue what goes to it. Really don't want to yank this intake again! Does anybody have a good...

To start off I brought a used 2002 ford explorer xlt 4.0 6cyl. I had a engine put in and it ran good for about month I was driving it in city, so it was all stop and go until about 2 weeks ago. I was driving from NY to wv and cruised for about 100+ miles in the fast lane I tried to accelerate...

2003 Mountaineer 4.6. I've posted a few items about assorted issues on this truck in the last month. The truck was running fine, but I recently changed my intake manifold because it was cracked and slightly leaking coolant into cyl. 5 spark plug well. I was a PITA, but I got it done and fired it...

I have a '94 Navajo w/ stock 4.0L V6. I have a serious coolant leak that I suspect is coming from the lower intake manifold and hopefully not a corroded or cracked one. The vehicle was dry until I filled up the radiator so there is no extra pressure on the system and you can see where the water...

I am going to start the process of detailing my engine bay. I am making a cover that bolts on to the inner fenders and goes around the back to cover the bulk of the wires and unsightly component. I will also be adding some chrome accessories. I was wondering if there was a compatible aluminum...

So I have a K&N air filter and Intake on my 1995 ford explorer. However I was wondering if it was possible to put that Intake in My 1997 explorer. I am currently stripping the 95 back to stock and was wondering if anyone had rigged the Older K&N intake to fit on the 1997 to save me some money so...

I have installed an aftermarket Spectre Air Intake on my 07 ST 4.0. I've gotten the check engine light and am wondering what I can do to remove it. Here's what I have. I bought the cone, tube, and everything else separately. The Spectre intake tube wasn't really designed for the ST so I had to...

I just bought a 2010 Sport Trac and i was wondering if anyone knew of any performance intakes on the market. I found one from KKM http://www.kustomz.com/054004.html but couldnt find much for my 4L V6. I just traded my Mustang GT for my 2010 Adrenalin so i am use to there being a different...

OK, so I have a 2005 Lincoln Aviator, comes standard with a 4.6 (just like the Marauder). I have replaced the crankshaft position sensor, camshaft position sensor, spark plug, fuel filter, ran Lucas fuel injector cleaner, and replaced OEM coil packs with Accel coil packs and I still get a...

Hey guys I'm joining because I have questions and the internet can only tell me so much. I got a 96 explorer xlt 2WD explorer V8. Its only got 118,000 on it, no tranny problems, no rust, very clean and fully loaded. Its says "explorer" on top of the engine. Every video or step by step pictorial...

Hey everyone. I'm going to try and change my valve cover gaskets this weekend and I have a few questions on the procedure. My Haynes manual says that you need to remove the upper intake manifold to get the valve cover off for 99 and later models. Is this really necessary? It also says to push...

I have a 2001 Sport Trac Job 1 (June 2000) with SOHC 4.0. I have 0171, 0174, 0301, and 0302 codes. I had a smoke test done and confirmed there is a leak in the upper intake manifold gasket. What is the best replacement gasket? I see gaskets from Fel-Pro (MS90890), Magnum (MS18037), and...

So Here's the deal. My father In-Law brought over his 91 Ford Ranger 3.0 XLT for a simple idle issue. While looking in to it, I found a host of issues that I have resolved with the help of these forums and the interwebs. However, many posts I reviewed did not often end with resolutions or feed...

I currently have a 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT 4.0L V6 2WD. So far all that I have been able to do is upgrade the speakers and stereo to a Kenwood Head Unit plus JL Audio Coaxial Speakers. I have also Gone ahead and both purchase and installed the Traxda (truxxx) Lift and level kit for the...

Hey everyone, I already did a search and read a couple posts regarding this issue. Just wanted to get a quick answer as why this happened. The side plastic from the intake manifold cracked. The hole is about 3" x 1.5". Wondering why this happened and would this show some kind of...

So I've gone quite a few places and can't seem to fix my explorer. Not looking for a miracle, but though I'd share it's history with you guys and see what happens! One day out of nowhere, my '93 XLT started revving from about 500-1500 over and over again on its own. Only time it would stop is...

I have a 1998 Explorer with a recently rebuilt motor 4.0 SOHC V6 (intake manifold was not replaced) 2 wheel drive that about 75% of the time sucks air so hard from the line (small 3/8" or 1/2" id hose) that goes from the air filter housing hose (large 3" id duct style hose that's preformed) to...

I need a little help. I have a 02 Explorer XLT 4.6L. I've already taken off all connections to engine, and last things to do is remove engine from tranny and motor mounts, etc. My question is where should I lift the engine from? There are no lifting eyes on the block, and I don't want to...

Hello everyone. I recently aquired this expl after the third engine started losing water into the crankcase. After checking the compression showed 180 avg., I'm wondering if the intake man may be responsible. Looking at the plugs showed no water in cyls. I have posted on a previous engine for...

Hello, I recently took my truck into a shop a few weeks ago because I suspect that at 160,000 miles the intake gaskets need to be replaced. My question is how many sets of gaskets does this engine have? As far as I know there's an upper intake gasket, a lower intake gasket, and a head gasket(the...

I suspect that my 02 sensors may not be working. I cleaned my IAC valve a few months back and I used RTV silicone gasket maker...yeah, I read a thread on here that said silicone is really bad for the 02 sensors. I don't have a very good idle at the moment, not bad just not right. I've already...
