    Oil Change

    Did you check the oil level before you drained it? You might have been low. Always check the dipstick when you fill it. Overfilling is not good.

    Tire pressure

    Those morons at the NAPA tire center put friggin 90 psi in my tires. Every time I hit a bump I blew a valve stem. I was not a happy camper. I didn't figure I needed to check my tire pressure after having them mounted. After the second flat in less than 2 weeks, the tire guy in Whitehorse...

    2005 F-150 on 2000 Expedition

    No they won't fit. I have a 2000 Expedition and we have the 5 bolt pattern.

    Increased MPG?

    My 2000 5.4 was getting about 12.5 mixed driving. I changed the fuel filter and it went up to around 13.5. I am 1000 miles into my 2500 mile trip from Anchorage to Seattle and I am averaging 17.4. This is manually figuring the milage, not a trip computer. I am very happy with this. When I...

    Gotta vent, Friggin flat tires

    It turned out to be a bad valve stem. I think these are the original stems. I am 500 miles into my 2500 mile trip on some real crappy roads. So far no problems.

    Checking the Rear ABS Speed Sensor

    If you think it might be bad, just change it. I just changed the one on my 2000 Expedition. It took longer to put the car on the stands than it did to change the sensor. Sensor was $11 from Napa. It is 1 bolt and 1 plug in.

    Gotta vent, Friggin flat tires

    I have had the Expedition for more than 2 years without a flat, now I have had 2 flats in 2 1/2 weeks. I am leaving on a 2500 mile trip in 2 days and now I am worried about the tires. They are in good shape with a lot of rubber left. I have a brand new set of Goodyear Wrangler RTS's that I...

    ABS light & rear abs sensor

    I got the rest of the fluids changed this morning and took the car out. No ABS light.

    ABS light & rear abs sensor

    Well I got under the Expy today and changed out that sensor. It took all of about 30 seconds. I am doing my 100K service so I won't get it on the road until tomorrow. Hopefully the ABS light goes off.

    ABS light & rear abs sensor

    I crawled under the Expy the other day and was looking at the sensor. It looks like there is only one bolt holding it in place. Looking at pictures of the sensor, it should just slide in. I know a guy on another forum that is a tech at a Lincoln dealership. I sent him a PM asking about...

    ABS light & rear abs sensor

    I would like to know the answer also. I have a 2000 XLT with the ABS light on.

    Finally here is my 2000

    Looks nice. How much did that lift and tires affect your drivability and mileage?

    dumb question of the week!

    When you turn the key on, do you hear a humming sound? With the air suspension the compressor comes on with the key.

    Purchase?

    KBB lists my XLT with 101,000 on the clock at $10,500 retail. It is a 2000, fully loaded with the 5.4. I would offer the guy $9500. Where are you located? Probably not in Alaska:(
