leaking

98 Explorer with 5.0 V8 Two of my exhaust studs are broken off, one on both far sides of the manifold. I've been driving it like this for about a week. The parts I ordered to fix this won't arrive til next weekend. Will I risk damaging anything by continuing to drive it another week? I'm not...

Hi - I located and cleaned 3 of the 4 drains for the sunroof of my 2013 Explorer Limited but can’t find the driver’s side rear drain which I expected to be at the front of the left rear wheel well but I don't see it there. (The sunroof has been leaking and will no longer open presumably because...

Hello all! I’ve got a 2002 Ford Explorer XLT 4.6l V8 (3rd generation I believe), and have a coolant leak that I cannot source. It seems to be dripping down from the top of my transmission (closest to engine), both while the car is running and while not running. I am loosing enough coolant to the...

This Explorer is going to kill me. I’ve fixed my AC. Got it idling smooth... well as smooth as it ever has. Now, I notice that my transfer case is leaking all around the gasket. I’m not talking about the shaft gasket, but the housing. That 7 bolt gasket that goes around the whole case...

Hey y’all, I recently received a truck so I’ve decided to sell my 2000 Explorer. Before I sell it, I’d like to fix some glaring issues with it. First, I’m another victim of the dreaded power steering whining sound. I’m not sure if it could be remedied by merely replacing the pump or not. It...

Bought the car as a project recently It's a limited AWD 5.0 v8 just wondering how much one would charge to replace all the freeze plugs around the engine does this require pulling the engine? Should sealant be applied ? And pretty much I just want a rough estimate of what I'm looking at...

I introduced myself yesterday morning before I decided to dig into the headlight situation. I went in armed with the knowledge that the multifunction switch (wiper/signal/high beam combination switch) on the column was the likely culprit. I had to prove it to the hubby though. Took my tool...

Went offroading a few days ago and just noticed some red fluid frozen underneath my radiator and on the ground. I'm no mechanic and i'm not sure what to do. Can't seem to post pictures, but the two hoses going into my radiator look pretty wet. Also my coolant seems stupid low so i'm getting some...

I am having an issue with a coolant leak on my 1996 explorer v6 4.0 that seems to be coming from behind the thermostat housing. It is not leaking out of where the metal hose thing bolts into the rest of the housing, when I squeeze my radiator hoses I can see coolant coming from a small crevice...

Just like everything else... you gotta start somewhere to learn the ropes, right?! Well, I just bought my first car. It's a '92 Ford Explorer Sport (2 door, 4.0L v6). I believe it's a RWD? (Correct me or confirm this please) There's a few problems with it so far and I want to learn how to...

OK, so back story is I have a 92 explorer xlt. Was doing some mild offroading. Was in 4wheel drive if it matters.. My tranny starts slipping out of gear. Stupid me kept going till I found a turn around a mile or 2 down the dirt road, checked my transmission and it was empty. Dump all along the...

I had my truck on a fairly steep angle last weekend and my cousin had noticed a little fluid leaking out the passenger side at the very front of the running board. Today, I had my Explorer on an even steeper slope and had a considerable amount of what looked, tasted, and smelled, like water...

Alright, here we go again! I am fixing several things on my explorer, but the first thing I need to fix is the leaking roof! Its 2am, and I just couldn't take the suspense anymore, so I went out side and took the headliner off on the driver side front to see what I could find underneath! The...

I recently had a freeze plug pop. At first, I thought it was the water pump, but then was confused when I saw that coolant was leaking above and to the side of the water pump. What could it be? After some help from the kind folks on this forum and overhearing a Ford mechanic mention it, I...

I have a major oil leak coming from what looks like behind the engine. I have checked the oil pan and it doesn't look to be coming from there. It all started when I parked one day after a half hour regular drive. I went in the house for 5 minutes and when I came out, I see a steady stream of...

Hi all, This is the first of a few posts regarding my 92 XLT. I've had it for a little over a month now, and while the "honeymoon" period is still going, I've encountered a few issues. I must have hit a bump a little too hard one day, because now I'm starting to leak both oil and power...

Hey everyone, Seeing if anyone can give me some recommendations here. I just took my 05' mountaineer in to have the trans fluid changed. On the way home i noticed that my tuck was smoking, when I had a chance to look underneath I noticed trans fluid everywhere! I'm assuming that they left a...
