What is ADVTRAC on a 2005 Ford Explorer?
My understanding is that it is a computer monitored system that automatically adjusts power/braking to any or all of the wheels when slipping is detected. It is automatically turned on when the vehicle is started but can be turned off if desired. There is no real advantage to turning it off because it may be needed in a moments notice in a near crash situation.
How do you replace Brakes and Rotors on a 1995 through 2001 Ford Explorer all models?
Remove the two bolts on either side of the brake hose with the rubber boots. Do not remove the four bolts where the axle ties in. The two bolts to be removed require a 10mm socket/wrench. Loosen the pads from the caliper
Rotor RemovalIn order to take the rotors off (replace with new or have them machined), it is best to loosen the emergency brake shoes. To do this, behind the rotors, in the back there is a rubber plug, remove that and you can use a screw driver to engage the teeth of the adjusting screw, turn it clockwise to loosen, usually 10-20 teeth. Usually this means turn it downward. After this, it may still be difficult to get the rotors off without tapping them. Use a rubber mallet and hit them from behind. Before really whacking the rotor, make sure you have loosened the adjusting screw enough. It may take heavy swings of the rubber hammer to do this. It will eventually break loose. Parking BrakeYou might want to check the parking brake while you are here.To remove:
- Remove the rear disc brake rotor.

To install:

ADJUSTMENT
- Measure the inside of the drum portion of the rear brake rotor
- Remove the rear disc brake rotor.
- Using Brake Adjustment Gauge D81L-1103-A or equivalent, measure the inside diameter of the drum portion of the rear disc brake rotor.
- Subtract 0.020 in. (0.508mm) from the first measurement, adjust the brake shoes to that size
- Adjust the parking brake adjuster screw until the outside diameter of the parking brake shoes measures 0.020 in. (0.508mm) less than the drum measurement.
- Install the rear disc brake rotor.
Re-adjust the emergency brake by turning the opposite direction from loosening.

What is the motor oil capacity for a 1994 7.3 powerstroke turbo diesel?
That depends.... Is it a powerstroke. You see my 94 f250 was built in Dec. of 93 but sold as a 94 model, therefore it has the old 7.3 (nonpowerstroke) IDI turbo engine and not the 7.3 powerstroke, which I believe has a different size oil filter.

What average weight of a dump truck?
Which weight? Gross weight? Tare weight? What configuration? 1 ton pickup? Single axle Class 7/8 truck? Tandem axle truck? Tri-axle truck? Quad axle truck? Quint axle truck? Centipede? "Superdump" quint with Strong Arm? Transfer truck? Tractor-trailer end dump, or belly dump, or side dump?
Try to narrow down the variables a bit. There's really no way of knowing what an "average" dump truck is without knowing statistics of how many single axle, tandem, tri-axle, quad, quint, centipede, and superdump dump trucks are out there - to the best of my knowledge, no such statistics have been compiled.
At the company I work for, our tandem axle dumps (with steel dump bodies) weigh between 23,000 and 24,500... the 23,000 lbs. trucks are the Peterbilt 330s, and the 24,500 lb. trucks are the Kenworth T800s with "rock tub" steel bodies, high lift gates, and split gate beds. These are the tare (empty) weights, not the loaded weights.

This test will determine what glow plugs are working. ( It will not determine a partially burnt plug ).
Disconnect the glow plug wires at the plugs .( You must unplug all of them for this test to work )
Connect a test light to the positive terminal of the battery. Touch the electrical connector at the end of the glow plug with the test light. If the light goes on the glow plug is working. Make sure you touch only the electrical connector on the plug. If you touch any other part (metal) of the plug the test light will light giving you a false reading.
