    Expedition 4.6 acceleration stalls when first start up - engine cold

    This sounds like This sounds like the Idle Air Control valve, it's located at the top of the throttle body under the 4.6L plastics. 2 bolts hold it in. I had a similar problem as well, but my truck wouldn't stay at idle it would just stall out once my foot was off the gas. Remove the IAC valve...

    Should I, or should I not exchange fluids with my tranny?

    Flashing Check Engine Light I haven't experienced the shutter, but the Check Engine light response you got from the guys is BS. Most Actron code readers will still read a code even if it isn't apparent. It will show up as "code pending" when it's read, unless the battery's been disconnected...

    Ignition Coil #4 Melted!!

    In the past few months, I've had 2 cylinders blow plugs out being #4 then recently #1, after some serious trial and error, I was able to tap both cylinders and drop sinks in and new plugs. Of course I had to replace the coils as well, cause they looked like they had been through a war. So...

    Kit Scratch Out

    Scratches I've used the Scratch X and I'm not a fan at all. After sadly to say watching a DIY video on Advance Auto Parts website for body repair. They recommended Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound.

I've found Ground Force lowering kits, that are 2" drops in front and rear, with rear coils and front torsion bar adjusters and...

    Problem after Problem!! Replacing Plugs, on a 4.6L

    Hey guys thanks for all your help. Here's the ironic part. After getting seriously frustrated, I pulled the ground cable from the batt, and let it sit for 90minutes. Put the ground back on and no codes, no more rough idle or codes. Did some research online, and someone else who did what I...

    Ticking noise

    Just some food for thought. I too had a ticking noise for the first half of the winter. I too thought it was a temperature issue. Had my oil changed and the tick was still there. When I took my truck to get new shocks and brakes, my mechanic noticed the fuel injector lead was dangling, which was...

    Recently developed Hesitation and Bucking

    Check engine light is not on. It did come on way back when those 2 ignition coils went, within 2 weeks of each other. Nothing since, light didn't come on when the Fuel Injector lead came of either. My friend whose a stangnet dweller, thinks it might need a tune-up cause it happens mostly...

    Recently developed Hesitation and Bucking

    2day my Expo started bucking and Hesitating while driving at speeds between 35-55MPH. Seems odd, but this has happened before and was an ignition coil, but this is different. With the ignition coil I couldn't break 40MPH without the truck lurching. This seems more subtle. Also may be the issue...
