Okay here we go... Had my '92 since '97. Yes the idle was never "perfect" had a glitch here and there, same as everyone's.
About 2 weeks ago a lady pulled out from traffic and ran into my left front quarter. Fender, bumper and left light. Cost me 140 in parts. Now this whole time the engine was fine. Ran like it always did. Maybe 100 miles later I feel this shaking/rumble in my feet and in the seat. The bumper had been pushed into the tire so I figure wheel bearings. I get new ones and it's still there. U joints. Trans mount. Engine mounts. Plugs, wires and air filter(actually cleaned my KN). And today, crank pulley/harmonic balancer, cleaned the IAC. Shake is still there. It feels like its missing but its not. It revs fine. There's a constant smaller vibration/shake with an intermittent jolt of a shake every few seconds. Driving it almost makes me nauseous.
I've been through this site reading, I can't tell you how many posts, on shaking. Even that long one on the "quest". Tomorrow I will read the codes and post what I find. Hopefully it's just some little sensor that went bad.
In the mean time... Any other suggestions??? This explorer has been one of the best cars I've ever owned. Except for that transmission rebuild at about 130,000.
Thanks
