My son really scored this week i think
he came into a 1997 Ford Explorer fully loaded eecept leather with 114K on it for $500..Apparently the guy got all upset cause of a couple fo quirks that i think are related
#1 the truck is really hard to move into gear.. it takes alot of effort to move it from park into drive.. Im thinking either a cable or the linkage but i remember another guy with a taurus that there was a problem with the cable..
#2 sometimes on a hill, like in the driveway. the parking pull doesnt grab and it seems like its not fully engaged and the truck sort of bangs down the driveway. so he just uses the emergency brake
any ideas of simple fixes without tearing apart the whole truck?
