5.4 vs 4.6
Looking at a 1998 4X4 4.6L Expedition. I hear a fair amount of people saying to avoid the 4.6. Why? Is it a junk engine? Looking for opinions, comments.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- fryguy

Weird Hydraulic Pump Wine
Since the last cold snap I've been hearing this wine coming from the transmission. It was really bad when we had our cold snap (-20). The sound is really noticeable when the truck is sitting idle, not much change in sound from park VS drive. When it's moving I don't hear it. I crawled under...- fryguy

Piston Slap?
Just wanted to get some opinions on the 1st gen 5.4.. I hear some people say it's a great engine yet occasionally hear people say it's junk. On mine, I have a really bad knock for about the first minute or two in the mornings, once it warms up it's supper quiet. I've been leaning more...- fryguy

4X4 Lights & HVAC
Yesterday I took my truck in to have the plugs and fuel filter replaced. When they gave me back the truck as I was pulling out of the parking lot the A4X4, 4X4, 4X4LOW and Low Washer lights started flashing. They flash 3 times, then it looses power for about two seconds. It does this...- fryguy

Failing Alternator? Fuel Pump Question...
Ever since I picked up my Expedition I’ve been hearing a very noticeable wine, sounds like it’s coming from the alternator. I cleaned up the battery terminals a couple weeks ago, and that seemed to make things a little better. It seems like it’s getting louder. I drive relatively long trips...- fryguy

New to me - 1997 Expedition
Hello Everyone, I am picking up a 97 Expedition tomorrow; buying it from a friend. It's in decent shape for it's age, and mechanically has been well taken care of. There is some damage to the frame, I am told it will be OK for another year, but would need to be addressed before next winter...- fryguy
