Check the 8th digit of your vin and the letter (engine) is probably listed as "W". This engine was used in the 03-04-and 05 models. Take note though I purchased a 2000 V6 explorer new which was suppose to come with the 4.0 V6 SOHC engine. A year of so later I was doing some minor work and noticed I had the old 4.0 pushrod engine in the vehicle. I immediately check with Ford and learned some leftover engines from model year 1999, which used both V6 engines, were installed in the 2000 model. I was instructed to check the engine code with the vin. Sure enough the code was for the older engine. Using an engine with the same engine code should work.

There should be a modulator (vacuum diaphram) on the transmission. The line from the intake manifold port connects to the 1/4-inch nipple on the modulator, which directs the transmission to shift gears at a pre-determined level of manifold vacuum.
Have you adjusted the pushrods properly? Pushrods generally need to be adjusted after installation.
Not sure how to do this on this model, although I own a 94 Ford Explorer with the V6 4.0 Liter motor.
Basically, when a gas engine doesn't run, you check 4 things, and narrow it down from there.
1. Gas (Is gas pressure good, is gas flow strong enough?) 2. Spark (are all spark plugs firing properly? Is spark strong enough) 3. Combustion at each cylinder (timing, pushrod adjustment) 4. Air Flow (MAF/MAP sensor working? Air Filter dirty?) Appliance Repair Utah
4.0L pushrod engine shown. 4.0L SOHC or 5.0L v-8 not shown. The spring side usually faces away from coolant in engine. The side with the wax pellet in the little can faces the engine so the hot coolant is touching it.
you may have a vacuum leak in the engine compartment. There is a vacuum hose going from the engine intake manifold though the firewall to the a/c controls. Also in the engine compartment, is a vacuum storage reservoir, a plastic ball, that stores vacuum for the a/c system. Check them first.
here's a test procedure too.
If the concern is not visually evident, perform the system self-test using the following procedures:
The self-test can be initiated at any time with any resulting trouble codes. Normal operation of the system stops when the self-test is activated.
Ensure that the engine is warm (at least 49°C [120°F]) prior to performing the self-test. To enter the self-test, simultaneously press and release the OFF and FLOOR buttons, followed by the AUTOMATIC button within two seconds. The test may run as long as 20 seconds, during which time the display will show a tracer segment moving in a counterclockwise direction in the center of the display window. If the tracer is present for more than 20 seconds, go to the Symptom Chart.
When the self-test is complete, diagnostic trouble codes will be displayed in the vacuum fluorescent display ( VFD) window. If there are no DTCs, all of the display segments will illuminate.
To exit the self-test and restart the system, press the blue button.
To clear the DTCs press the DEF button.
The self-test should be deactivated before the EATC system is shut off.
Refer to the DTC Reference Chart for an explanation of DTCs.
----------------------- NOTE: To prevent a situation where defrost cannot be obtained, the air handling system is designed to provide defrost when no vacuum is applied to any of the three vacuum control motors. Instead, a leak in the vacuum control circuit will send all air flow to the defroster outlets. This condition may occur during acceleration (slow leak), may exist at all times (large leak), or may exist only when specific functions are selected, indicating a leak in that portion of the circuit.
The vacuum hoses used in the passenger compartment control circuit are constructed from PVC plastic material. The vacuum hoses used in the engine compartment are constructed of Hytrel. Because of the materials used, the vacuum hoses should never be pinched off during diagnosis to locate a leak. Use a vacuum pump to locate vacuum leaks.

I believe the fuse for your starter is in the power distribution box, 93 explorer 4.0L 4X4. find diagram for this in Chilton Ford Ranger/Explorer/Mountaineer 1991-1999 Repair Manual 26688 page 6-43 Fig.88 Be aware that there are (4) figures for the 93 4.0L explorer and each shows a different part of the same engine wiring. See top right 'power distribution box' follow lines to the part of your engine you are concerned with, which fuse number, then look inside your engine, passenger fender, push down on the protective ?wall then pull the cover up, see your diagram and fuse numbers. The diagram for inside fuse box, page 6-31 fig.63 I hope this helps
