I have a SEVERE vibration when I start out from a stop. It doesn't happen all the time. It happens in reverse also. Usually I can accelerate out of it. Sometimes it lasts for several blocks. Its severe enough that I can't go 5mph. When it smooths out, it drives like a champ. Work done recently...

I have a chance to get 4 wheels and rubber (good tread) off of a 2001 2dr Exploder. Tire size is P235/75/16. Will I have any scrubbing issues up front as the truck has not been lifted. My truck has the P225/70/14 right now and these wheels are cheaper then buying new 14"s Thanks in Advance

Sets daily, or every other day. Have re-replaced the dpfe, and the valve above it. Idled engine, sucked on egr valve and it stumbled like I think its supposed to. Had this problem about a year ago. Changed everything in the egr system including the o2 sensors and cat. What next?

I've been using a magnetic mount, (through thr third brake light). My garage door took care of that tonight. Has anyone ever tried a permanent mount on the bed rail top or a mirror mount instead of on the roof? Was there a difference in reception and did the SWR's change for the worse. I have a...

I get these codes when the gas tank is between 3/4 and full. It also only happens in the cold weather. (I live near Cleveland) The code reader says both systems are running lean. My manuel has nothing on these codes. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Its a 1997 4.0 with auto, 2wd, and...

I have a 97 2WD extended cab with P225/14 tires and factory alloy rims. Can I put a 15 inch (or even 16) rim with the same backspacing? I'm looking for ease here, not major mods. Theres no lift kit of any kind, thr truck is stock.

Any wisdom on changing the ignition coil? Plugs and wires have less then 20k on them. The coil pack is probably original with 216k+ miles.

I get this code on a daily basis. I have a 1997 2wd ext cab 4L. I've changed the EGR valve and pipe to exhaust, the two small modules above the EGR valve, the three O2 sensors, mass air flow sensor and the cat converter. (OEM style) Yet the code remains. When I read the code, I can then erase...
