Hello all, I have a 96 model Ford Explorer XLT with the 4.0 SOHC motor. I find that when ever I go on long trips and am doing around 110kms/h (I am from Australia so excuse the Kms instead on the Mph) I have the overdrive light come on and flashes. Once this happens the transmission shifts very hard and the only way to stop the light flashing is by dissconecting the battery and resetting the computer. I have been told by a ford technition that the Torque Converter is slipping when it gets hot which then sends a code to the computer warning of this. He suggested to change the torque converter to a stronger one that will cost me $800AUD fitted. Any other suggestions??? Cheers David
