The Explorer trannies from these early years (like my '94) are complete pieces of crap. I've heard very few cases of people happy with them. If you go and get another one installed, make sure that's it's been rebuilt and all recommended upgrades have been done to it. That's what I had to do with mine. It cost $2000 to rebuild it with all the new upgraded parts, but it works great. Getting a used one will eventually end up giving you the same problem.

What sort of "recommended upgrades" are you speaking of
