    4x4 gremlin

    Hello. 4x4 lights don't illuminate when I turn the truck on. They don't illuminate when I turn the round dial. I don't feel or hear anything engage when I turn the dial. I've checked the 30amp fuse #20 and it's fine too. The first time I turned the truck on last week when I first got it I...

    2003 passenger side front window problem

    Ok. I've searched but can't find this. Got this car used. Window Goes down fine but goes up really slow. The switch on the door only lowers it but won't try to raise it, I'm thinking it burnt out. I lubed the rails on either side and no help. Took the panel off and the glass seems to be set...

    Ok. Now my a/c issues. What is this piece I circled and should the hose I'm holding go onto that lil nipple? Thx

    Maybe I posted too soon. Think I got it all figured. Sorry

    And this little t valve thingy. All the hoses are rotted off their nipples. ☹️

    *****. One $10 elbow and idle problem, brake problem/ a/c problem all went away in a second. Whtbronco, thank you for all the time you gave me. It's so cool that you helped out a stranger for no other reason than to help. I will follow up and replace the other piece as well. Haha. One lil...

    Bought a 2003 87k miles at auction site unseen

    Ok. So now it's home I got up on a stepladder and I hear a hissing. I stuck my finger behind the engine and I feel a hole. It's the pic valve. There is no hose attached to it. I stuck my finger over the hole on the valve and all the bad idling stopped immediate. I see way behind the valve...

    Bought a 2003 87k miles at auction site unseen

    Thank you so much. So I just drove it 55 miles. I did it with the MAF unplugged so it would stay running at idle. Probably was a bad idea but it's home now. Here is what I learned on the journey. 1. As soon as the car is moving forward it runs like a dream. Smooth, no weird sounds or...

    Hello. Did I maybe just figure out a piece of the puzzle. I started researching about how to do a Smoke Test. I saw a vid where it said to go in by the brake booster. I never knew a car had such a thing. lol. Anyways. The other big problem with my car is the brakes are super duper spongy...

    2003 4.6 xlt

    Hello. I bought this site unseen with 87k on it. It was only running with foot on gas. If I let it idle it dies when it hits 400rpm which happens immediately. I started off by replacing IAC controller. That did nothing. Then I tried cleaning MAF sensor, nothing. Then I drove it by a mechanic...

    Bought a 2003 87k miles at auction site unseen

    Thank you. No I didn't pay much. If it's too much work I'll just put it back in auction. Either make a few or lose a few. Thanks for all the tips. I can't check out till Tuesday. Do you know if there is a way to raise the idle rpm just so I can drive it home the 50 miles?

    Also. The iac valve that was on the vehicle has a vent cap and looks to be for a 5.4. My replacement I put on does not have a cap but is definitely for a 3093 4.6. Would this be a problem?

    Bought a 2003 87k miles at auction site unseen

    Hello. So I bought this at auction a few days ago. It starts easy but dies almost immediately. It only stays running with my foot on the gas a little. But as soon as I take my foot off it has a rough file and dies. It seems to want to stay around 400rpms. I was hoping just a IAC valve. I...
