- 1996 Ford Explorer
Hey there, I currently came in contact with a 1996 4.0 4wd automatic Ford Explorer. It works just fine and has no leaks. My buddy is going to get rid of it because he said that it did not idle well... I thought I would take a look at it. I changed the Idle Air Control Valve. This did not help at all. What I did notice is that I think it idle's just fine. When the gas is pressed the vehicle almost takes off on its own, it idle's high and pretty much just accelerating on it's own?! When I come to a stop it does some funny revving for 10 seconds drops the battery a bit, then it just idles fine. Almost sounds like it is going to die but doesn't. When I put it into park it rev's from 500 to 2000 over and over. Please help this car is in great shape minus something weird going on. I want to fix this so he doesn't just give it away.
Thanks!!!!
Thanks!!!!
