- 1998 Explorer EddieBauer
Just got a new hunting & fishing beater, a 1998 Explorer Eddie Bauer with 159K miles on it, its actually in really nice shape had a recent inspection a 4 brand new Goodyears for only $2200. Every little doo-dad works and it drives real nice. Problems? Will it has the infamous P0101 & P0104 codes for lean condition, has a bad tensioner for the serpentine belt (putting a new one on tomorrow) and the radio works but no display (will be putting in an Alpine unit I have laying around as soon as I figure out how to get the radio out). Will probably end up putting intake gaskets on it since it has the idle surge too. I've been working on cars all my life and built a few race cars so I do all my own work. This is actually my first Ford since my '87 HO Mustang I had 15 years ago. Hopefully I'll get a few years out of the old Explorer and I'll be lurking on this site doing searches.
