1992 Ford Explorer

I am looking at a 92 Explorer, for sale. The gentleman said that he thinks the linkage is unhooked and the truck wont go into drive. Is this an easy fix? He is asking $600. I need a vehicle that I can drive immediately, but I really like this one. Any info would be a big help. Thanks

Will it go into any of the other gears, i.e. reverse?

Disconnected linkage is fairly easy to fix if that's what is wrong with it. If the transmission is burned out you may be able to move the valves into place with the existing linkage, but obviously the truck isn't going anywhere. That would be about 2500 dollars to hire a fix on.

Hope this helps,

Bob

What is the name of that heater blower part?

F

99 Intrepid The blower fan stopped working on the first, second, and third speed but would still work on the high forth speed. I replaced the resistor block and all speeds worked again. About 4 days later the same thing happened and I need another resistor block. I played with the original one that burnt out and I had a hard time to figure out how it works. It has 3 coils of different sizes and those put the resistance in the circuit for the first 3 low speeds. It also has a small electronic device that is the piece that is burnt out and will not allow current to the low speeds. My question is: What is this device? My guess it would read temperature and stop the blower motor until the air was a certain temperature until it allowed the blower to turn on when in the heater mode. We just got the car so I am unsure how the heater normally works. Am I right in my assumption here. Can I bypass this device until I get another blower in? ThanksRead More

Brakes for 1985 Ford F150

Hey everyone, I am completely baffled by a brake problem I have with my truck. I completely lost brakes yesterday. I looked in the new master cylinder I replaced this year, and found the front reservoir completely empty. I traced all of the lines back only to find all intact. I bled all four brakes twice. I test drove the truck and the problem persists. Could my brake booster be bad? I can't figure out where the brakes would be leaking if I can't find a leak within the lines. I did notice that when I had my son step on the pedal, brake fluid leaked out past the gasket of the cover on the master cylinder over the front chamber. I am going to start with bleeding the system again, but am baffled by this problem. Thanks for any help you can provide!Read More
