    My butt dyno says the Motorcraft filter is good for +3.75hp at 3500rpm. I'll check again tomorrow, this time with the headlights off...

    Thermostat vs. ECU

    Hmmm... sounds like I have some more homework to do... If its mechanical, what turns it on, meaning where is the temp sensed?

    Thermostat vs. ECU

    I already have a Hypertech Power Programmer but on the Expedition (at least in 2005) the feature to change the fan setting is not available... grrrrrrrr.

    What oil filter do I need?

    Since I'm changing my oil anyway, I got the Motorcraft filter, a whopping $3.67 (before my discount!). Should be good for 5hp, right?

    Is there a way to change the fan setting for using a lower temp thermostat, say a 180?

    What oil filter do I need?

    I've used Fram for hundreds of thousands of miles in cars, trucks and motorcycles and have never had a problem. Of the 5 current vehicles I have now, only my Mazda3 doesn't have a Fram. To each his own.

    So you had a Fram filter break internally on you?

    I bought mine for $7 at the auto parts store and it worked fine. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

    Radiator and Transmission Cooler

    I found a part #5L3Z8005BB that I think is the OEM super-cooling radiator but I'm not sure. I guess I will check with the dealer. Does anyone know if the stock, non-super-cooling radiator is 1-row or 2-row?

    Fuel Filter

    Yep, the tool was about $7, has 2 sizes, and I only needed it for the downstream side of the filter.

    2005 expedition transmission oil change

    I think the 30k interval is a dump and fill, not flush.

    2005 expedition transmission oil change

    At 60k I had the dealer do a complete flush and refill, not just a dump the pan and fill. I do some towing every now and then and I don't want old oil in there...

    Well... good info... I'm not gonna sweat it, just bought a Coleman travel trailer from Camping World and they are providing and installing the brake controller, weight distribution system and anti-sway bars for free.

    Poop. So what good does the blue wire do? Save me a whole $1 from buying one on my own? Grrrrrr.

    Brake Controller?

    Upgrading the wiring on the Expy from 4-wire to 7-wire and I was wondering about the blue wire taped to the wiring. If I connect it for 7-wire use will I still have to get and install a separate brake controller?
