My '01 ST has been doing the shuddering bit when I'm at low speeds and when turning the wheel at a stand still. I looked up the TSB on this subject and it gives a long proceedure on replacing the power steering pump, cooler and a check valve. Then it said you may still have the shudder with the...

My parents are going to look at a one owner '02 Sport Trac today with 67k for $11,500. I have an '01 but I've only had it 3 months. I've had a few minor issues with mine but I love it. Are there any things about the '02 that they need to look for in the way of problems.

I bought carpet to put in my '01 Trac and I was thinking about spray painting the siver part of my center console while I have it out (it's pretty scratched up). Has anyone done this (painting console) and maybe have any pointers or advice. Thanks

I'm probably not the first one to do this, but I feel like an idiot. I was changing the coolant in my Trac and after flushing the system twice I was tightening the drain cock and the head of it broke off. Now I'm going to have to stick something into the drain to back out the part with the...

Whoa!!! Alright guys, I ran a Carfax before I bought the truck. And, there are absolutly no signs whatsoever that this truck was flooded. No rust, no smell, no mechanical problems. I called a local Ford dealership and he told me that the muddy looking coolant is not abnormal for coolant when it...

Hey guys, I appreciate the concerns but the truck owner lived in Brookhaven, Mississippi which is about 3 hours north of New Orleans. I bought it at a Ford dealership there where it was traded in.

I just recently bought an '01 Sport Trac that obviously has been driven a lot off road. The underside was full of dirt and all the places the detailers missed are dirt stained. My question is this. The antifreeze has a lot of sediment almost like mud in the reservior and what I can see in the...

Hey, I called the local Ford dealer and the parts guy was familiar with the hose shown in the picture. He said the elbow comes as part of the whole plastic line and is $32. It looks to me that you should be able to change out just the elbow. Do you know if this is possible and where to get it or...

I had recently sent in a forum concerning my '01 Sport Trac acting like it was going to die when I would shift from drive into park. The rpm's would drop and the truck would kind of sputter and then rpm's would come back up. I replaced the IAC valve and it did not help at all. Any suggestions on...

Thanks for the advice. I've had to clean the IAC on my old Ranger but could not find it on this truck. Had no idea it was under the plastic cover. By the way, the abbreviation I had the most trouble with on a Ford forum was GP, which was "glow plug". The forum involved diesel trucks. TGIF "thank...

Sometimes on my '01 Sport Trac it seems to almost want to die when I shift into neutral or park. The RPM's drop then come back up. Been doing this about a week now. Any ideas as to what it is?

I've noticed on my '01 sport trac that sometimes when the truck has sat up that it makes a growling noise when I first crank it. It sounds like a diesel truck starting. Any idea what this might be?

Has anyone had to change out the a/c door actuator on a Sport Trac? Is it difficult or costly?

I just recently bought a used '01 Sport Trac and I've noticed a plastic burning smell when I first use the A/C. It is not the "musty" smell. It goes away after a minute and doesn't do it until the next time I use the A/C again. The dealership did tell me they replaced the drive belt and...

do you still have it?
