ALL RUBBER COMPONENTS (HOSES/BELTS) SHOULD BE REPLACE RIGHT ABOUT EVERY TWO(2) years.now your rack and pinion should only be replace if is going bad or if is already bad. For example once the inner bushings on your tie rods brakes or crack, the entire unit needs to be replaced. if the rack is leaking it needs to be replace Even if there is NO noticeable changes in your steering of the vehicle. This is done for SAFETY REASONS.

Why will a 2000 ford explorer go in reverse but not drive forward?

It's definitely a transmission problem. Any further analysis will require a bit of hands-on work to determine the cause.


Can you combine freon and R-134a?

No. The two chemicals have different temperatures, and different operation pressures. They also have different rates of evaporation, and require different drying chemicals in the accumulator/drier. R134a will dissolve R12 (freon) drying chemicals, resulting in damage to the system. R12 can be recovered by some shops certified for work with the chemical, but the pressures of R134a are far higher for operation, and in some cases require replacement parts on the condensor and evaporator, and potentially on the pump. (the accumulator has to be replaced in any case, but again, different chemicals required). The lubricant oil in the pump as well, has a different breakdown under R134, and requires replacement refrigerant oil.

What are the alternator oil pipes for.I ask because i have got a leak from the pipe that connects to the alternator.?

Alternator oil pipe? There is no oil pipe connected to the alternator that I have ever seen. The alternator has sealed bearings and does not require any outside lubrication. Are you sure you are looking at the alternator? Is it possible you have a leak at the power steering pump and that is what you are looking at? I really have no answer for you, only more questions. Please clarify. Clay is absolutely right. The alternator has no outside oil connection. Find out what REALLY is leaking. A/C compressor? Power Steering?
