Smoke and burnt electric smell
Today my 2016 Ford Explorer Limited started giving a burnt electronic smell coming from the passager fardest vent. I smelled the other AC vents and is coming strong out of that single vent.

Acts like choke stuck, but what choke???
Hey All! What would act like a stuck carb choke on a 94 Explorer? Bad Behavior is more common after the truck has run a while normally, shutoff and soon restarted --that's when the fun begins; idle increases, some stutter and power drop outs occur, and there is a funky exhaust smell. Any...- Cheddar Dan

2013 burning brake smell
Hello, I'm a first-timer here. I just got a new 2013 explorer (2 miles on the odometer). My wife drove it home and I followed close behind in my 2011 ranger. I smelled an intense burning break type smell. I called her on the phone and asked if she had the e-brake on. She said no and she could...- barackhussein

A/C works, but heater doesn't.... HELP
I just got a 1998 Ford Ranger XLT 4.0L V6 and my A/C blows ice cold air when on, but when it's cold out and I turn my heat on, it blows cool/cold air, but not as cold as the A/C. I can also smell radiator fluid when I get out of my truck but never see any leaking. Any ideas? I could use a fix...- brazin
