My 1993 ford explorer us acting up after I drove thru deep water?
I was driving my truck thru some deep water yesterday and then I parked it for a while. I got in to drive it and it started to sputter and pop luke it's out of gas and which it was not. I made it home. Truck Was blowing while smoke and being very lowd. The trans acted like it was slipping would not accelerate and vibrating a lot. The truck would cut off or not start. I was trying to blow what ever it was out by getting on a long strip a flow it it seemed to work but not long. I was going home when the trans would not go into any gear and had a trans fluid leake. I had it towed home and I don't know what's wrong with her
The problem is, you drove it through deep water
Water got into the transmission, over-filling it and causing too much hydraulic pressure
It probably got into the intake, too, soaking the air filter and restricting the air flow to the engine
That drive through the water is going to be very expensive for you
Pull the air filter housing apart & see if there's water puddled in the bottom. If there's, dry it out & get a new air filter.
- How to change water pump on 1993 Ford Tempo? I managed to get the drive belt off but I can't seem to get the tube that goes into the water pump off. It seems to be made of metal or something. I also can't seem to reach the 3 bolts that hold the water pump on, they seem to be in places to tight to reach. Any suggestions?
- I drove my Ford Fusion through really deep flood waters and I'm worried I was stuck out in a bad position where I had no choice but to drive through flood water. My car seems fine today, however you can never be too sure and I heard it's possible to have long term damage. What should I look out for?
