the misfire my be caused by improper sparkplug gaps or bad injectors
There are several things that can cause your 2000 Mercury Mountaineer from running. The most common cause is a lack of fuel. You might want to start by changing your fuel filter.
a cylinder misfire might be happening. check your plugs and wires for bad connection
burnt valve...
The power steering might whine on a 1998 Mercury Mountaineer because the pump or reservoir is low on fluid. Check the reservoir and add fluid to eliminate the whine. You may have a leak in the system.
SOUNDS LIKE THE WARE INDICATOR ON THE PADS CUTTING INTO THE ROTORS. CHANGE THE PADS, MIGHT BE A WHEEL BEARNG GOING BAD
The door ajar light might stay on in a Mercury Mountaineer if a door is not shut properly. Sometimes a door will seem like it is shut, but will not be shut enough to trip the light off. Check for dirt or other debris in the door latch for all doors.
When a sunroof will not close on a 1997 Mercury Mountaineer, check to make sure that the hinges are not rusted. The fuse for the sunroof mechanism is in the fuse box in the dash on the driver's side. It might be possible to close this manually, if the hinges move freely.
sticker in the glove comparment or you can program your own with the manual or go to the dealer,they might charge for it.
I have a 2002 Moutianeer, and not to long ago had a problem with the shifting. It would struggle, then shift real hard into 2nd. I had to have a tramsmission overhaul done. Thank God it was under warrenty.
you might have installed it upside down or the new thermostat might be defective or the wrong temperature range it could also be something unrelated, possibly a blown fuse
Could be, spark plug(s), contaminated fuel (water),
I had the same type noise in my 2002 Mountaineer. I pulled the panel of on the rear drivers side and found the device that opens and closes the heat or air vent was not getting to the position it needed to be. constant recycle. Since I live in Florida I disabled the device and positioned the vent to air only. No noise and its cool now.
