oil pressure and small oil leak
 

The pressure drops towards the lower point but still stays in the normal range limits then goes back up. Now there is small oil leak on the transmission I see where it's coming from but idk what is causing it?

Hi Guys,

thabks for tre info on the anti-freeza. I'll sit down and re-read tonight. I'm just at the salvage yard now and found a 99 explorer 4.0 ohv that looks in great shape with 100k on it. I'm about to start pulling he head off just now but had a couple of questions:

1. Im assuming the 99 will work fine on my 97 ranger?
2. From what I understand the heads are not side orientated. The passenger head is much easier to get off and wanted to make sure it would go on my drivers side.
3. Im assuming there isn't a problem running one 97 head and one 99 head?

thanks
scott

Those are questions for Ron.
Your post is in the wrong place, just found it by accident.

whooops! I'll blame it on he dehydration taking a head out in 100F+ heat. I'll post in the correct place.

Thanks
scott
