The thing that causes the hoot noise is your idle air controler valve. If you replace it you will get rid of the noise. Ford prices the part at $127.00, but you can get it from auto zone or advanced auto for around $50.00. It takes about 30 seconds to change and it is located directly on top of the engine. It is as easy as opening the hood and changing the part. Also on an explorer you might want to watch out for the hood hydrolic arms giving out. Those are only about $20.00 to replace from auto zone or advanced auto, but again ford charges $89.00.

Really loud humming noise coming from around air filter in engine compartment on 99 explorer when very hot outside or Air Cond is on?

The Ford Explorer uses an idle speed control valve that allows air to flow thru the idle air passage inside the intake manifold. When this air passage gets clogged up with carbon or grime it restricts the passage & the result is a loud humming / moaning noise. The repair is to remove idle speed control valve & spray carburetor cleaner or intake cleaner thru air passages inside intake manifold & clean or replace idle speed control valve.

Ford humming 4.6?

Possibly the EGR system ... try squeezing the hose from the air intake (plastic thing that says SOHC on it) that goes to the rear of the engine (about 1" dia.). If it stops, the humming might be a sticky EGR valve.
