- 1995 explorer xlt
95 explorer xlt 4x4 4.0l ohv
Leaking upper manifold when I got it. They left old rings in an installed the aluminum intake gasket. Wrong gasket so I got old rings out they were hard an cracked.
Replaced with mahli brand d rings. They fit in very deep. Replaced gasket under fuel rail. Its leaking again. The plastic plenum is wet above fuel rail.
Are there thicker seals u can recomend? Is it worn? I dont understand how itd wear deeper in groove?
Is it better to go aluminum? I've seen rangers an explorer's up to 94 with aluminium upper an it looks the same? Do they fit an seal better. Ik they use a paper gasket.
Thanks for any advice on this
