Hi there,
I have had my Explorer for about a year now and have had a lot of issues with it, but still love it.
The most recent issues are that it will run for a while, warm up and then start stuttering when you slow down and stall out when you stop, it is possible to keep it running, but not easy. When this started it also started losing power. We were thinking the cat converter or the fuel pump with this, but not positive. It also gets really bad gas mileage now. The problem does not occur when it is cold, but it still runs rough and lacks power.
Second problem the button for my 4x4 just stopped working, not sure why.
Third, I have smoke coming through all of my vents when the truck is running, smells like radiator coolant, pretty sure it is the heater core going out or a leak, just looking for some advice on how to fix the problems.
Had some wiring issues a while back and have replaced the battery, crank censor, coil pack, did an oil change and spark plugs not to far back. Getting ready to get on all these issues and do some more routine stuff. Thought it was awesome to see the door hinge replacement directions, since mine slipped. Anyways, thanks for any advice.
