    New lights, and some LEDS

    Yeah I hate when I am blinded by a ricer that is no taller then my tires lol. I made sure to aim them when I put the housings and the LED head lights in. No one wants to be "that guy".

    Hard to start issue

    I cleaned the IAC a while back and the issue it had went away. After taking it on the high way once in a while the idle wouldn't drop below 1-1.2k and would correct if I reved it a bit. After I cleaned it it no longer did that and acted normal. For a while I would have a stall or near stall...

    Hard to start issue

    I dont believe that to be my issue because when I finally do get it to turn over I get some smoke out of the exhaust, I was thinking leaky injectors maybe? Or something along those lines.

    New lights, and some LEDS

    not one flash, my fiance has a Hyundai elantra and I've tested it on her. She said the only time they are annoying is when I pull up right behind her at a light. But the old stock lights were right at eye level with her then too so its not much different.

    Hard to start issue

    under hood buzz

    Today I was under the truck replacing the running board lights when I noticed with the key on engine off there was a constant buzzing sound coming from under the hood and was loudest behind the drivers wheel well. The best way I could describe the sound was it sounded like a fuel pump priming...

    What recommened grade of gas to fill up your expedition?

    I used to use 87 now I mostly use 89, with 87 the truck felt sluggish and would rough idle once in a while. Even after replacing the air filter, gas filter, spark plugs, pcv valve and cleaning the egr ports that were mostly clogged. All of those things didn't help my gas mileage at all. Never...
