    Engine Help - Problems persist

    Thanks you mystik, Your second post did not have a link. I hope you can still post it. I did unplug the CVT from the truck and used a jumper wire from each solenoid directly to the battery to actuate them, one seemed to work less effectively so I replaced both of them, unfortunately the expy...

    Engine not getting oil at passenger valve cover

    Mead, If I could afford it I would move on to something else. I now have too much $$ tied up into mine that I have to make it work. I'm just not sure what to fix right now because I cannot find anyone to diagnose it.

    Wouldn't the state of the art computer diagnosis from the dealership help pin-point a wiring issue?

    Engine Help - Problems persist

    Ford has been our vehicle of choice for 4 generations and may stop after this! I need help I'll try to be brief. Last month my 2005 expy 5.4L 108K miles started with all the classic signs of cam-phaser failure (rough idle, stalling, sounds like a diesel). I attempted every fix possible to no...

    Engine not getting oil at passenger valve cover

    Mead, I bought my 2005 expy 5.4 with 99K miles and had the same problem with stalling and the truck sounded like a diesel. 7 months ago I replaced everything on the front of the motor phasers, tentioners, chain, the works. All the problems came back last month with 108K miles, after exhausting...

    Engine HELP! Replce or Rebuild

    6 Months ago I posted about an 05 Expy 99K miles, 5.4L I bought with noisy cam phasers (Sounded like a tractor). I replaced both phasers and chains, crank sprocket, tentioners and arms, chain guides, plugs, fuel filter. All my problems seem to go away except for a harsh metal on metal noise at...

    Bad Stereo reception, how do I attach the antenna to the glass?

    I looked at an 04 but it was a blade type connection, the square white end accepts the "needle" from the the antenna wire running from the stereo. I'm guessing the other end of the black wire was clipped. I've called, Ford, glass, and audio places with no luck. I think I'll find an eyelet...

    Bad Stereo reception, how do I attach the antenna to the glass?

    Hi all I'm new to this forum stuff, please bear with me. I bought an 05 expedition and found later the rear passenger quarter glass had once been broken with the antenna, there is a lead or pigtail off the antenna that attaches to the glass. Can I just solder the wire to the glass? Here are...
