1996 Ford F-150 Problems
Engine Oil Pan Gasket May Leak
The engine oil pan gasket can develop a leak. Leaking oil may accumulate on the exhaust system resulting in a burning smell. Replacing the gasket should correct this leak.
Vibration or Noise at Highway Speed
If there is a vibration or noise at highway speed, it could be from the frontdrive shaft and may require replacement of the double cardan joint. A double cardan joint is a type of driveshaft joint that uses two universal joints.
EGR system tubes can break and cause leak/noise
Tubes for the EGR system (exhaust gas recirculation) can break, causing an exhaust leak and noise under the hood.
Car won't start due to stripped timing chain gears
Noise from rear end when turning
If a noise from the rear end is heard when going around turns or after driving at highway speed for an extended period, there is an updated differential clutch kit available.
