I stopped, shut it off and checked and there was no overheating at all and no...

    Aftermarket halogen/LED foglights

    I finally got my push bar put on my Expy and now want to find some fog/driving lights for it.....so what has everyone been using? I will check out the halogens but I am leaning towards LED's (the brighter...the better). Obviously I want some good, weatherproof ones....not the ones that fall...

    Plasti-Dip questions

    I am looking at using the Plasti-Dip on the rocker panels on my 01 Expedition and I was wondering if anyone has done this? By what I have read on other posts it looks like you can use it just about anywhere and just peel off what you don't want (like any overspray). Any input on this would be...

    Code P0401 in my 2001 Expedition

    Well today I got a check engine light and checked it with a code a reader to find it is P0401. I have been searching the forum and doing some reading on this and it looks like the EGR sensor is most likely the culprit. What I am wondering is should I replace the EGR valve as well as the EGR...

    Another thread about crappy mileage

    My 2000 XLT with a 5.4 and 119,000 miles seems to be getting really crappy mileage. I know the Expeditions are well known for this but burning nearly half a tank and only going about 110 miles seems a bit much! I keep up on the maintenance pretty well and it has a good air filter,just had tranny...

    Ticking noise in my 2001 Expedition XLT

    I have noticed a ticking noise with my 2001 Expedition XLT. It is most noticable in the front passenger side fender area just standing beside the truck.

    Fuel system cleaning...anyone done this?

    My 2001 XLT seems to have some hesitation while I'm driving it.....it feels like it wants to go but can't when you are accelerating. I don't have any check engine lights or anything else to indicate a problem either. I thought about running a couple of cans of Seafoam throught it with a full...

    How often should you have to replace the coils on a 5.4 in a 2001 XLT? I bought one about 2 months ago wih 114K on it and had to replace 1 when I got it and my mechanic had to replace on at his expense about a week ago (he got it wet during a radiator flush) now today I went out and started it...

    Heat issue

    I happened to notice today (since it got colder and windy) that my heat isn't as warm as it should be. It gets warm but not like my other vehicles. The temp gauge didn't go up very high either so I was thinking this might be a thermostat/antifreeze issue. I tested the antifreeze a month or so...
