1993 Explorer 4x4
When I push the dash mounted button to engage the 4X4
nothing happens.
Would someone please give me a starting place to trace the problem?

Today I was riding as a front passenger in our 2003 Mountaineer. I noticed
about ankle level there is a groove in the plastic kick panel that says
"Fuel Reset" or something like that. What the heck is it?

My cruise control has ceased to function, it was intermittent, now no longer
works.
The fuse is OK, any other areas to investigate.

I have a '92 Explorer XLT (4x4 4.0 6 cylinder) that I've decided to get
rid of. I've had it for about a year now but it needs a new head gasket
and exhaust. Considering what I just paid for it not that long ago I
don't feel like sinking much money into it. Besides for the gasket and

About a pint of gasoline was spilled in the far back of my
station wagon.  Odor remains a week later, although I've put
hundreds of miles on the car with all windows, including the
rear window, open.  Any suggestions for getting rid of the

I have a 98 4.0l Explorer Sport, I've had 3 thermostat's go bad. I had the
last one replaced by the dealership along with a sensor and some melted
tubing. What prompted me to pull over was the check engine light even though
the temp gauge read normal (midpoint)  A month after it ...

My '02 Explorer has developed an clicking sound in the rear end of the
vehicle. The best way I can describe the sound is that it sounds like
turning a child-proof medicine bottle top without pressing down on it.
The noise is intermittent and can be heard both when braking or driving

I am looking at getting a used vehicle and get rid of my old truck. I
am looking at a 2002 with low miles. Are these good, reliable vehicles?
If I got one without the 3rd seat can they latter be converted to 3rd
seat if I wanted or not?

 NEW PROFESSIONAL PAINT CHIP AND SCRATCH TOUCHUP KIT.
 Now for the first time you can get the same results dealers enjoy. If you
can wash and wax your car you can eliminate those unsightly paint chips and
scratches leaving the painted surface smooth and shining like it was new.

Have a 98 Ford Explorer with 4.0 SOHC V6 and 102k miles.  Recently
experienced trouble starting when the vehicle was hot (still within normal
range).  It was suggested that this could be ignition module problem.
Looking at archives seems to suggest this could be the problem.  Can't ...

Contemplating doing a compression test on my V6 pushrod (1996) Explorer
engine. I've never done one before, so I started reading up about it. The
procedure appears to be:-
1) remove all spark plugs.

Anyone know why the EGR Pressure Sensor on a 99 EFI would have melted? It
almost burnt a hole through the intake manifold while it was at it.
thanks,

Lately my Explorer has been slower to start; it does start and run OK, but I
have noticed that it has to turn over a little longer before starting.
What should I be checking to cause this?
The engine hasn't had anything done to it since I purchased it new, May

This isn't about the rear wiper -- I learned to ignore that a long time
ago <grin>.
My front wipers will sometimes not start.  I searched through old
posts, and it seemed that most were concerned with uncommanded starts.

Anyone know a source for the OEM Class 3 Hitch for the 02+ Explorer?  I can
get one that bolts on to the frame underneath the original Class 2, but I'
rather just have one receiver back there.  Iwas trying to save a few bucks
with someone like Reese, or Draw-Tite from the ...
