On database, it says the tach wire of FORD EXPLORER 1997 is TAN/ YELLOW at PCM of pessenger side. But in car, I don't see this wire. Any body knows which wire is the tach at this truck?

going off memory....

You should have a coil pack at the top of the motor, near the back on the drivers side. There is probably a plug with 4 wires in it. I think 3 of the wires are tan with a stripe and then there is a fourth wire that is a totally different color. You can use any of the tan/stripe wires.

Thanks for all of you above.

BTW, mo12v, which installation database are you using now? It is very helpful.
