I wanted to share my experience with this product. I purchased the Mothers Clay Bar System at Checker today. I tested it on my 1997 Explorer XLT. The results are amazing, the paint is sooo smooth and reflective it's crazy. It removed black overspray (from when I painted

| Michelin LTX MS tire pressure? | 07 Jul 2004 23:34 GMT | 20 |
Just put 4 new Michelin LTX MS tires on my 2000 Explorer XLS (2WD). What should the tire pressure be? The tires say "consult owner's manual / max. pressure 35 PSI". The owner's manual says to follow recomendations on side of tires, so I'm unsure what is best. The tire dealer put 37 ...

| Future value of a truck bought today | 07 Jul 2004 00:43 GMT | 11 |
I am in the market and I am trying to compare different SUVs. I know that, as an example, a Ford generally does not hold its value as well as an Acura, but it probably costs less initially. I want to see an estimate of what a vehicle would be worth, say 3 years after purchase, so ...

| Windstar question? | 07 Jul 2004 00:41 GMT | 1 |
As an Explorer owner, I have benefitted greatly from the advice of this group over the last couple years. I am a new minivan owner and realized there is no such minivan newsgroup to consult. Please don't berate me too severely for violating newsgroup "cross model" edicate, if such ...

| Air Ride suspension question | 04 Jul 2004 09:53 GMT | 4 |
Saw this mentioned in another thread but thought it best to start afresh... I have a UK spec '98 4.0 SOHC 4X4 which is fitted with a self levelling suspension system. The drivers handbook describes it as an 'Air Ride' system.

| buying a new explorer (or other new vehicle) | 04 Jul 2004 06:43 GMT | 4 |
Sometime in the future, I am going to embark into the jungle of auto dealerships to purchase a new Explorer. I've read some of the better books on how to survive new-car negotiations (such as Remar Sutton's), but one question they don't answer is: how do you make sure the ...

I just changed my blower motor (burning smell and smoke coming from the vents) and that went well. When I hooked up the new motor everything went well but! Now I only have high speed. Did I do something wrong or has something else gone bad.

| 93 Explorer.Won't stay running when put in gear... | 03 Jul 2004 06:37 GMT | 1 |
I have a 93 explorer 4x4 with 4.0L engine. The vehicle will start up and idle just fine, but as soon as I move the gear shift lever the engine stops. When it stops, the engine shakes very roughly in the engine bay before it quits. The engine will restart immediately and idle fine ...

| Moaning engine? | 03 Jul 2004 03:18 GMT | 4 |
My '97 XLT with 4.0 pushrod engine and manual trans. has lately developed an odd symptom. In hot weather at idle the engine makes a loud continuous "tone"-like sound. It seems to change slightly at different engine speeds, but not proportionally and not much until RPM's are up at ...
