I am new to the site but not new to the concept of forums and message boards!
Just purchased a used 2004 ST 4x4 xlt about a month ago and have a few maintenance related items that might help round out the site.
I am working on doing the O2 or Oxygen sensor replacement today. Got the first 2 done in about an hour but the 3rd is a bugger and still waiting on the penetrating oil to work while the truck is jacked up on the front right corner with the wheel off.
Happy to write up the process for this and the other maintenance I've doen by relacing the Fuel Rail Pressure sensor.
a bit of background about me... I live in SE wyoming and work in SW Nebraska at a well know outdoors retailer. I had 28 years working for a major auto parts chain prior to moving here in 2006 and I was ASE certified as a Parts Pro. Needless to say, I have turned my share of wrenches and used a lot of diagnistic tools. As a matter of fact I still do most all of my repairs and maintenance. I have foound over the years as the internet came about that people posted solutions to their issues and I like to help the same way when I can. Sport Tracs are tough to find any info about and the best option many times is wrong when you use the explorer as the "same as" answer.
Anyway, if you need some help I might be able to point you the right direction and if you have an answer, please post so I and others have the info to help keep the ST community rolling along .
Thanks and more to come on the O2 sensor swap completion!:banana:
