| When should I think about chnaging the timing belt on my 2003 Sport trac that has 112,000 miles? | |
|
The only blue oval badged vehicles EVER sold in this country with timing belt vs. chain was the Ford Probe and 1.8L Escort GTs from early 90s. You don't need to change a timing chain. Mark |

the problem is when I turn on the heater or a/c to any other position besides the feet, the tac goes way down. about every other second. if i am idling it is really annoying. i also noticed when the a/c is running it does not stay cool when idling. anyone have this problem?

I recent bought a 04 st I put in a new air filter, took it through the carwash and got home to find a sqwheeling noise from the drive belt. I lubricated it with wd40 and went to rev the engine to clean extra spray off and the engine misses after 300 rpm's? any thoughts?

Replying to: sporttrac04 (Dec 27, 2007 7:15 pm) As far as your miss. Check that all the clamps and hoses are connected leading from your air filter box all the way to the throttle body. Your Mass Air Flow sensor [MAF] is inline on the snorkle intake. If there is a slight leak after your MAF, it can cause all kinds of running problems. The MAF gives info to the PCM as to air flow demand to the engine. Good luck. |

| My 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac was having a slow leak of anti-freeze, so I nurse it along as I could not afford to have the hose replaced. Last week, the hose burst & the truck lost power and speed. The Weird thing is, the heat sensor was showing the temps in the middle so, I pulled over. The hood was steaming white smoke, I turned off the truck & tried to restart and got nothing. Only then did the heat sensor show overheat. I had my truck towed home. My question is, can my truck's engine be repair and what is the ideal cost for a repair bill like this, or am I screwed and the truck is useless? | |
