In this video, auto mechanic Mike Green will show you how to replace the air filter on a 1998 Ford Explorer.

This procedure is the same for 1997-2005 Ford Explorer 4.0L, 1997-2001 Explorer 5.0L, 2001-2005 Sport Trac 4.0L, 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer 5.0L, 1998-2001 Mountaineer 4.0L, 1998-2001 Ford Ranger and Mazda Pickup 2.5L, 1998-2008 Ranger and Mazda Pickup 3.0L & 4.0L, and 2001-2008 Ranger and Mazda Pickup 2.3L. However, the installation may be slightly different.

This is a really job and no tools needed.
