- 2001 Explorer XLS
Hello:
I have a 2001 Explorer XLS that recently I have noticed has been idling in the 1000-1400 rpm range when I run the AC. Also, during a road trip I noticed the engine was running very hot. Turning off the AC seemed to bring the temp back into just slightly higher than normal range.
I can understand a thermostat causing the temp issue, but not the idling issue. Any ideas?
