    Engine temp with A/C running

    All the fluid levels look good, and seem to be maintaining. No leaks that I can find. I've already taken care of the plugs & wires (boy, was that fun!), oil change, and plan to drop the transmission pan, install a plug and replace the fluid. I'll probably go ahead and drain and replace the...

    Engine temp with A/C running

    Got an '01 Sport trac a few months ago. I've noticed recently that whenever I'm running the a/c in my ST, the engine runs noticeably warmer than with the a/c off. Not really running hot, as the needle still isn't even quite up to the middle of the gauge, but there's definitely a noticeable...

    Rough Idle

    Replaced the elbow, or what was left of it this afternoon. Seems to be idling a lot smoother, still not quite as smooth as I'd like, but much, much, much better. The elbow on there had 3 nasty layers of electrical tape and god knows what other goop, in a previous owners efforts to 'repair'...

    Towing with a Sport Trac

    I'm looking at an 02/gen 1. I'm sure it's got the motor/hp to pull it, I just don't want to get 20 miles down the road and have it running hot on me. I also don't want to replace a tranny after a couple trips. Thanks again for the help!

    Towing with a Sport Trac

    Hi all, I did a quick search of the site and couldn't find quite the info I was looking for, so sorry if this is a repeat topic... But, I'm wondering what the factory tow pkg on the sport tracs included. I'm looking into getting a sport trac, but I don't know if it would be best to buy one...
