I had a thought today, and thought I'd run it by anyone interested. My transmission runs consistently between 100-150deg, while my engine runs consistently around 195-200deg, especially in summer. If I am running colder transmission fluid through my transmission 'cooler' tank on the...

I have two vibration problems that have been a nuisance for years, that I've never been able to pin down. I've always had the 5.5 superlift on it, so I can't compare to stock, but this problem has happened throughout the rest of my modifications and maintenance, like jd extended arms and a...

Just to chime in on this, I've been running 33" Trxus MT's for the past 10k mi on my Ex, which is my daily commuter and off road vehicle. Haven't had any problems, they run real quiet and perform great in mud and rocks and such. Mine have very little wear, I expect to get 30-35k out of them at...

I am curious whether or not anyone here runs or has run accel fuel injectors on a 1st gen explorer 4.0. I ask to see if they run well first, and also to see what lb/hr rating was used. I am under the impression that stock is 19 lb/hr, but the accel catalogs list a 21 lb/hr as stock...

I appreciate the reply, and I think the: * FUEL PUMP circuit is activated at a time that is not programmed into PCM strategy. is probably what triggered it. I was shorting the test connector to ground while doing all sorts of things to try and figure out what was going on. And I also...

Sorry about this, but I just checked the codes again,and it turned out to be a code 542. Hope someone can giveme some insight on this

Well, right now the upper intake is off the vehicle so I could test the injectors, so I can't check again until I put it back together, which I didn't want to do unless I had completely ruled out injectors, so I wouldn't have to do that job again. Before I pulled it off, though, I was doing a...

Here's my situation, hopefully someone can help, since reading the 120 posts in my search here didn't get me any closer. my 92 with 160k has had an intermittent problem with idling for the first minute or two after its warmed up for quite awhile now, and was getting about 3-4 mpg less than...

Thanks MrShorty, somehow I was convinced it was sequential injection. Good advice on the fuel pressure test, I'll have to try that after I do the FPR. One word of advice to those that read this, the FPR that's on my vehicle now was purchased at autozone less than 3 years ago, not more than 20k...

Just a note, if you go to randy's ring and pinion website, under the tech section, there is an article on notching your existing cross pin, but they aren't that expensive to go buy one, which is what I did. Good luck

That's actually good news, since I just recently noticed that there IS a gas smell coming from the vacuum line into the FPR, since my mileage has been dropping alot lately. What I would like to know, however, is how to test injectors with a fuel pressure guage, since I can't seem to get the...

Does anyone have any ideas on this? After my 92 Ex is warmed up and I shut it off, if I start it back up when it's still warm, it idles really bad, surging all around and stuff. I don't get any computer codes, and otherwise it runs fine, no real missing or anything. I can't figure this one out.

I would definitely check the ignition coil to make sure it hasn't melted. Also, to actually 'test' the coil, all you need is a ohmmeter, to check the resistance between the primary and secondary circuits. I don't have the specs, but you can look them up in a shop manual, or maybe do some...

What, if anything, have you checked out on it? Is there fuel, is there spark at the spark plug. 90's hondas are known for their ignition coils overheating and melting, usually something that happens out of the blue. I would check that, since its common and easy. The ignition coil is under...

I ran this setup since last march, so through the summer. The fan is set to switch on at 220, but I have no shroud or anything, so I believe that mounting it better with a shroud will solve my overheating problem, which it only did at a standstill or on serious hills. My main problem now is...

So here's a new one on me, that I haven't been able to pin down. My 92 Ex 4wd AT has an aftermarket electric fan, new radiator, all new hoses, new rad. cap, new coolant sensor, etc. I replaced the new 195 deg. thermostat I installed with all that stuff once already, just to be sure, and I also...

Just wanted to let those who wanted to know, I rewired the fan the 'proper' way, and no more problems. Just goes to show what bad wiring can mess up

CdnCory, that sounds like a different problem, most likely ign lock cylinder. But come to think of it, I think J. Kennedy has my answer. I installed an electric fan a little while back, and I don't think I had this problem until then. I also have aftermarket guages, but those have been in...

I can guarantee it's not dieseling, I know what that sounds like, and it doesn't sputter for a while then die, it runs like it always does, then shuts off as if I took the key out normally. My explorer is tuned properly, doesn't spit CEL codes or anything else. Thanks for the suggestions...

Anybody had this happen to them? 1st gen 92 explorer, when I turn the key to turn the car off, the car stays running, the guages still read for about 3-5 sec., then the car dies. I can take the key completely out of the ignition, and the car will still run for a little, then shut off. The...

Wondering if its possible to 'add' in a tcase out of a 85 bII (i think bw1350) and double them up, without using someone's (expensive) doubling kit. I think the main issue I'm having is the technical details of it. If I just mate the 2nd tcase after the first, will I just have to index it so I...

no, i didn't order one, I overhauled mine before I found out about this. I do trust A1c, just because I've bought their reman'd parts before. and they probably won't have them in stock at most places, I think they;re pretty new

I just found out that A1 Cardone now remanufactures tcase motors, and has listings for explorers through 2001. Most auto parts stores/counterguys don't know about these, but anyplace that can get A1C stuff should be able to get these. Application Part No: 91-94...

yep, and it helps a little, but what I'm really worried about is the movement of the rear axle, because as far as I know, that should not be happening

Hey everybody, got something I just can't figure out. From a stop to takeoff, I get a big clunk from the rearend. Happens when I come to a complete stop too. I look under while the lady drives, and I see the rearend pivot and the pinion will shift up and down. When I first got my lift...
