The 4.0 L SOHC V6 engine found on second, third, and fourth generation Explorers was notorious for the plastic OEM timing chain guides, cassettes, and tensioners breaking resulting in timing chain ticking, rattle or "death rattle". This problem can occur as early as 45,000 mi (72,000 km) in some vehicles.
A frequently occurring motor deficit is left-sided hemiparesis (in strokes affecting the motor cortex). A less common motor deficit in this population is dysphagia. [4] Patients with right hemisphere brain damage often display sensory deficits such as left neglect, in which they ignore everything in the left visual field. [5]
The specious present is the time duration wherein a state of consciousness is experienced as being in the present. [11] The term was first introduced by the philosopher E. R. Clay in 1882 (E. Robert Kelly), [12] [13] and was further developed by William James. [13]

The pressure vessel is a seamless cylinder normally made of cold-extruded aluminum or forged steel. [5] Filament wound composite cylinders are used in fire fighting breathing apparatus and oxygen first aid equipment because of their low weight, but are rarely used for diving, due to their high positive buoyancy.
The problem of making such a definition is complicated because it needs to include a variety of modes of sleep found across different species. At a symptomatic level, sleep is characterized by lack of reactivity to sensory inputs, low motor output, diminished conscious awareness and rapid reversibility to wakefulness. [16]
