    Expy newbie!

    you could try cleaning the MAF sensor. Listen to the injectors to make sure they are firing right? I am not sure exactly. My 2006 expy was having a rough idle and power loss and it ended up being the combination of bad coil boots and plugs which fixed my rough idle, but brought attention to my...

    Please help the newby

    I have an 06 expedition and it is pretty much the same as the 07. The biggest problem....and I know this from experience is changing the plugs. Two piece plugs that come apart easily I would change at 70,000 miles and use some penetrating oil in plug wells for as long as you can wait to let it...

    Power loss

    I know. I was wondering the same this. The plugs were not firing right.....I am not sure what someone else did before I had it. I do know that when I was hunting for the vacuum leak I took off all vacuum and fuel system hoses and there was a layer of gunk in all of them. I am not sure if some...

    Guess this is goodbye!!!!!

    Have fun....My friend at work love his jeep and swears buy it even though he breaks something every time he goes out.....I guess the shorter wheel base and lighter wait could make your off roading a little faster

    Smelling The Radiator!!!

    Is it coming out of the radiator? it could be a small crack but not big enough to release pressure. How much is it leaking exactly. you could also try radiator repair solution for a temporary fix if it is a small leak....looks like a new radiator will run close to $200.00 if you need one.

    02 5.4 turns over but doesnt start (not fuel pump)

    I know you have tested some of these, this is just my list of things that I check. Maybe one of them will help. Also I am not sure about your 02, but my 06 injectors constantly click. The most likely causes are: A dead fuel pump (could be the pump, pump relay or wiring circuit); A...

    Power loss
