So I changed the EGR valve and it seemed to do the trick on mine. Hopefully cleaning yours does the same thing. Although, the only reason mine went bad in the first place is because I got throttle body cleaner all over the motor that your not supposed to get cleaner on apparently. (at least I...
I have the same issue. I cleaned the EGR valve and changed the transmission fluid at the same time and it went away. I'm not sure which of those things fixed it but it was smooth as butter after.
Now the vibration is back though. Which makes me believe that cleaning the EGR fixed the problem...
I'm probably the last person to be giving advice, I'm mostly a consumer on here... but since I just did this I'll give it a shot.
First go ahead and crawl under the truck and figure out where the inspection window is on the bell of the transmission. It will have a rubber grommet/plug in it that...
Thanks for the feedback guys....
So it is most noticable when I'm in drive with the foot on the brake not moving. When I shift to park it gets noticeably quieter. When I put it in drive or reverse from park it almost sounds closer to a diesel than a gas V8 in the cabin. The sound/vibration may...
I learned some valuable lessons today. 1. Fix one thing at a time... 2. Read this forum before fixing anything.
So My Expy has this loud rumble/vibration that you feel in the seat... but its difficult to pinpoint. I wouldn't be suprised if it ended up coming from the engine even though it...
Thanks guys,
I got a dremel up there with a brass wire brush and got it all out. Then I took a while making sure I got everything clean again and the filter fit perfectly as it should. Thanks again.
Haha after all of that I put Mercon V in which is what both Ford and the local parts shop...
Thanks guys! Got it.
Now I'm in a new mess. drained the TC and then took the pan off. The fluid was really dark. Went to change the filter and really had to tug on it. It looks like the orange seal from the filter got stuck in the transmission. I tried with my fingers for a while, then needle...
Hi all,
So I was planning on changing the ATF today, and I know that the torque converter holds alot of the fluid. So I read that I need to turn the engine over until the drain plug is accessible through the inspection window on the bottom of the torque converter. I was thinking (hoping) that...
I have a similar noise coming from the TB area. I went to clean it the other day and saw that the rubber under the hose clamp connecting the intake to the throttle body was all mashed up and cracked. I'd like to know where you found those hoses as well. I was thinking about a pick a part or...
So I just stumbled upon this yourmechanic.com site. Was sort of thinking it was a gimmick, but I filled out a few forms to get quotes and wanted to see what you guys think.
For 300 they will change my spark plugs and ignition coils. That includes the cost of the coils which is why it seemed...
Has anyone ever tried using a plastic hose like this to place spark plugs?

I'm trying to work up the courage to change my plugs in my new 97 expedition. The videos I'm watching and instructions I'm reading have me a bit nervous.
Any advice?
