Stay tuned, Dallas Aires on Friday night! We'll find out what happens to his engine, I hope! Rcanfiel were messing with you, let us know what the dealer/ car lot does.

I do appreciate Rcanfiel following up. So many of these die and we don't know if given advice helped the poster. We have 3-4 engine replacement questions posted the last week or so. They post and they go.

Get used to it Snag. Only about 40 percent follow up on their findings, or fix it and don't have the decency to let the people that reached out to them, say I fixed it, your advice was spot on. That would be too easy.

I notice that. Seems common courtesy

Courtesy would be nice, of all the websites, this one is the only one worth being on. It was like back in the 70's when we all yakked on the Cb radio, we had one channel, 13 was the one that stood out, we were like a family, it was cool. This forum kinda reminds me of that.

I have been looking for a Exp EL for 2-3 months now, just found this site and now reading this horror story and you guys responses I am wondering if its the right type of vehicle to buy used... I have been looking for a 07-08 with as close to 100K as I can get for $10K... but what I am hearing on here is that is a potential disaster...there are not many of the EL's around western NY so I have been extending my search 3-4-500 miles out...now you guys have me scared to look at anything farther then 50 miles away! whats the real deal here...is the 5.4 that touchy?

Yes they can be. One story would be well that guy didn't take care of his vehicle. But 4 or more, that's a reason for concern. Their have been many that have not had issues at all with the 3 valve motors Years 2005-2010, but others did. Best advice is have it thoroughly looked over preferably by a dealer or top quality shop that knows these vehicles, and shy away from any with engine or transmission noise during your test drives.
