hey all,
i'm approaching 100k miles on my 2002 Eddie Bauer. I bought it at the
end of 2006 and haven't really done any routine maintenance on it
(aside from oil changes and rotations) so I would like to make sure I

I have a 94 4x4, driving along radio started going on and off, lights
dimmed, car died. Have replaced alternator twice battery 3 times,
cleaned battery wires, installed new connectors, checked fender fuse
box, have no idea what next. Is there a fusible link? I have bought

I am driving a 99 Ford Explorer with about 140K miles and I have
noticed on a couple of occasions the the front wheels seem to slip.
The first time it happened it was really snowy and icy but I didn't
put it together with the idea that it might be my 4WD. Then nothing

In our only snow fall before the holidays i noticed the Auto 4WD
wasn't engaging. Tried hitting 4WD High and it did nothing
Checked all the fuses, all were ok. Restarted the car and as if by
magic the 4WD was working again. Stopped working a few days later and

I'm finding the need to replace a couple of lock actuators on my 2000
Mountaineer. Purchasing form the dealer is quite expensive, I was
wondering if anyone has come across a less expensive source for these
items. Any recommendations will be welcome.

Just curious why my speedometer goes nuts in the cold after all these years?
Old age, maybe??  Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

I have a single CD player in my Explorer. There is a CD in it that
will not eject. When I attempt to eject it, "Error" shows up on the
display. I bought the vehicle used.

I posted before about my '03 Mountaineer being loud. I was able to go on
a quiet stretch of highway at 60 mph then shift into neutral and shut
down the engine. Noise continues. So I guess that rules out drivetrain
and exhaust. BLUEOVALNEWS folks suggested front bearings and I do ...

I am planning on replacing the (horrible) stock speakers found in my
Explorer Sport (2 dr model). I have the standard stereo with only 4
speakers ( at least I can only see four speaker grilles in my SUV) and
no sub-woofer in the trunk. Does anyone know what size speakers are in

My wife and I noticed that our 2003 Mountaineer V8 seems to have gotten
very loud. It's hard to tell what's going on, if anything....perhaps
it's just getting older....it was purchased in September 2002 and now
has 68,000 miles on it.

I am thinking about buying a new Mountaineer to replace my 2003
Mountaineer. I currently have the V8 that gets...surprise
surprise....13MPG around town and 19 on the road, exactly what the new
"real world" sticker rating estimates on new Mountaineers. I noticed

Does anybody know if the gas with 10%  low-level ethanol effect in bad way

reality?

i'm considering a dual/dual muffler for my 2000 explorer sport with
4.0 SOHC V6.  i've heard arguments on both sides with no definite
numbers to back up either.  I can't find any good numbers or
testimonials on V6's.  i've heard that flowmasters dont flow as well

Need help fixing my accelerator. Every once in a while, when I step on the
pedal to get going, it sticks, I have to put a significant amount of
pressure to get to move.
Anybody have any ideas?
