Hello Everyone--
I am posting a reply to my own problem...I don't know if this is the best way to do this or not, but anyway...
I got the tranny problem that I was having fixed. It was a bad modulator valve, and bad vacuum hoses going to that valve. I was told by a few different tranny places that my clutches were going out and that I needed a rebuild, etc. I finally found a shop that offered me other options and they turned out to be right. The vacuum hoses going to the valve had become rotten and were slowly leaking fluid and burning it off in the engine. I had the valve and the hoses replaced for 80 bucks and the problem is gone. Granted, it has only been a few days, but the trans hasn't slipped or malfunctioned once since the repair. Just keep this in mind and request that the modulator valve and the vacuum lines be inspected if you are having any slippage or malfunctions in your explorer trans. Obviously, this may not be the fix in every situation, but I think it is a common problem in the 91-92 explorers and might save you some serious money if you have it checked out first before a major re-build.
