Question Purchased 95 Explorer and having problems after 1 week

Hi, I recently purchased a 1995 Explorer XLT. I drove 300 miles and having problems already. I hope someone can help. First, when driving on highway and when a little extra power is needed for a hill, it makes a loud vibration noise until you give it gas to go into a lower gear. I drove in a friends Mountaineer and his did the same thing a year ago and he is still driving it. Next, when started, it would not idle up to 1000 like usual and only to 250 or so and act like it wants to quit. When you put it in reverse it would then quit. But it did not do this all the time. Now, it did this and quit and would not start again. So, I have yet to get it started. I hope someone has some ideas of things I can check as I do not have the money to fix in a shop after just purchasing this vehicle.
