Replying to: ssobehtami (Sep 09, 2008 3:14 pm)  I'm now having the same problem with my '01 Sport Trac.  OBD II has no power to it (pin 16)  Did anyone find out what was wrong and how to repair it?   Tkx bcooper88cox.net

I recently bought a used 2001 Ford explorer sport. For the first month or so its been doing great, and only had a few minor problems that were fixed. About a week or so ago ive been having some problems with my transmission. For example.   I would start it up fine, take it down the road and after about a min or so of driving it wouldnt go anymore. You could press the gas and rev it up all you wanted, but it wouldnt go anywhere. My dad and i really wouldnt like to buy a new/used transmission, and would love to know if anyone has any ideas about our problem.   fyi, we checked the transmission fluid and it was actually above what was needed.

Replying to: clintoris (Dec 11, 2008 7:02 am) I'm finally getting around to fixing this just now. Question; I can easily get at all the manifold to engine head bolts by removing the wheel and plastic wind deflector, but I cannot get to the inside exhaust pipe bolt. The one of two that hold the exhaust pipe to the manifold. My question is, if I remove the bolt I can get at, will the bracket that holds the exhaust pipe to the manifold allow the exhaust pipe to drop enough that I can get at the second bolt?
