    NEED Wiring diagrams Limited anti theft controller module & remote power door locks

    I've found bits and pieces spread all over the forums, but most are not legible after printing or are incomplete. These modules are integrated. I'm installing a deluxe aftermarket remote start with remote keyless entry and am eliminating the factory setup. If anyone has the EVTM, or wiring...

    Rough Idle when warm

    I'm 3 for 3, E-v-e-r-y. S-i-n-g-l-e. o-n-e has had this same problem. I drive around a while, turn it off - grab a couple things at the Quick Stop, and BAM - it runs like $h!t and pull out of my parking space holding my head in shame as if I'm another schmuck who doesn't maintain my ride...

    Project build - "Elvira"

    As most of you know what happened to my previous Explorer, and after a 4 month hiatus, I figured I'd start a build thread for those who'd like to follow my progress. I picked up a 1994 Dark smoke grey one in Florida in October, mostly rust-free. In Indiana, they rust from the bottom up; In...

    Bummed but proud

    I was alone on my way home after picking up a stand up freezer off Craigslist. Someone trying to pass on the right hand turn lane rammed me on the side real hard and fled. Hit me pretty good. Knocked me off the left hand side of the road. All I saw was a white speeding car out of the corner...

    First Generation Explorer Double DIN conversion

    TTB Steering Mod - build thread

    I'm prematurely posting a build thread as I believe I have a cure for the TTB steering woes, maybe not the cure, but a cure, and I'm not using a Superrunner kit, or a complex swingset. Parts are on order, and a majority have just arrived. I'll either be hailed as a hero genius or lauded as one...

    How do I know when to replace the fuel filter?
