94 explorer performance
HI everyone, I just found this site while doing some research on my truck and well I am excited to have found this safe haven from all those mean people who cant respect that people drive a different brand than them. I have a 94 EB explorer with 4.0 in it. I am looking to get some more pickme up out of it at a reasonable price. Is it worth the money to put in a high performance intake? if so whats recommended around here. How about chips, are they worth the money on an explorer? or are there some cheap tune ups I can do. a few years ago the o2 sensors went out on it and we were driving through south dakota until we could find a dealer to take it to (6 mpg). after those were replaced, I bought it from my parents about a year and a half ago and ended up replacing the Catalytic converter because of the o2 sensors, is there something that should be maybe checked or replaced, 130k on the engine.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

I too own a '94 w/130k+ miles I put a can of engine restore in after every oil change it seems to help. Also I cleaned the throttle body with a rag & carb cleaner this smooths out the transition from idle . plus a newset of spark plugs and some feul system cleaner ,really seemed to pep it up.

Explorers and Rangers are probably the *best* "bang for the buck" vehicles when it comes to naturally aspirated engines. Good engine sizes combined with relative light weight results with the chip giving a potent increase.....
