I recently bought a 2001 Sports Trac.  The original owner has told me that
once it gets cool outside the engine oil pressure gauge doesn't function for
the first few minutes.  Well, it's getting cooler outside and the gauge is
doing exactly what he said it would do.  When I start ...

OK, so I have read ALOT of scattered posts about what I need to do to
swap out my stereo...

it, and the JBL sub... I'm not sure is thats premium or not and am not

The drivers side door will not lock using either the door automatic
lock, the remote lock, or even when trying to push the lock down
manually.  It shakes like it wants to go down, but it will not.  Has
anyone had this problem, and if so, how did you fix it?

I have a slight burning smell coming from under the hood of my 1997 4L OHV
V6 explorer with 130K miles.  I smell the smell after I park in the garage.
If I open the hood while the engine is running, I can faintly see
steam/smoke rising up from the front of the engine.  I can't ...

I made my trip with no problem, put the car in a shop for an eval. Leaking from
one or both axle seals. My dealer wants $500 to replace the seals. $100 parts
kit, $370 labor and $30+ for shop supplies, taxes etc. When I asked the shop
manager if  this was a common repair he said no. ...

1999 Ford Explorer - suddenly just quit running.  No noise, no nothing.  A
mechanic is trying to tell me he has to completely take apart the engine and
replace 2 timing chains inside on the bottom because "maybe a plastic piece
broke off".  After it's all back together again, if ...

I have a 1999 Ford Explorer XLT with 85K miles on it. A couple of months ago,
the airbag light started coming on and a couple of days later, the ABS light
came on. The airbag light starts to flash once the vehicle is in gear and
then it stays on. The ABS light just stays on if the ...

I own a 2003 XLT Explorer, AWD with 42K. For about 2 weeks I've had a spotting
type differential leak which drips to a spot the size of a silver dollar then
stops. Any thoughts on what this is, how serious and whether it needs attention
immediately? I've got a 150 mile trip coming ...

At first was hard to start, but will now start but idle poorly (almost
stalling, then smoothing out repeatedly).  Also lack of power on
acceleration.
I poured my monthly can of B-12 Chemtool into the gas tank a couple of days

The data port on my 2000 Explorer EB is dead.  Is there a fuse or other fix?

Does anyone know of an information source that lists factory wheel
swaps?  I have a 98 xlt 4x4 that has the factory 15" wheel/tires on it.
 There are a lot of pre-mounted factory 16" and 17" take-offs on eBay
and the like. Has anyone done this?

Hello All. Car starts immediately, but wants to die and will do so if I
don't pump the gas pedal a few times for a period of about 10 seconds to
keep it running. It then runs fine and warms up normally. Car runs and
accelerates great after that. I am the original owner of this ...
