    My last hope on my rough idle

    Well here goes my 2 cents. I have same SUV, same year. Your lean condition is saying #2 cylinder is lean. That and if you haven't already, fix that hole in muffler. All vehicles have to have a totally sound exhaust. It's not like old days before computers. Also, I'd check #2 fuel injector for...

    Fixed drivers power windo

    That's one of the reasons I didn't want to mess with it. That spring on mine looks like it needs to be wound then put on a post to hold it. Can you tell me if that's so, or is already wound?

    Cylinder 4 misfire plus EVAP System Monitor and Catalyst Monitor won't complete cycle

    Morning Brent, The GPS tracker was so he could keep an eye on his wife. She probably was a looker, with a wandering eye! $500.00 is a 1990 price, you did well grasshopper. Good hearing from you, congrats on the three babies. I'll shoot you a friend request so we can chat. Maybe you can help me...

    Fixed drivers power windo

    It was a new Ford unit I got off of EBay. The up portion was fixed by me swapping out the window relay on the inside fuse box. Never heard of one direction going bad, but it did. My question is, can anything be done about the stopping and rough action now. It's also not stopping at top and...

    Fixed drivers power windo

    Well, I'm bummed out. I ended up finishing a job that the shop should have. I had the panel off due to the non functional window earlier. What really ticked me off was the moron that did the install screwed up the cable in the window regulator. It won't go up or down without stopping. He ruined...

    Overheating Mystery (2000 Eddie Bauer 5.4L)

    You described a clogged heater core my friend. Shotgunning all those parts you did was unnecessary. Swap out the code with a quality piece, and I'm betting you'll be fine. See this is why you diagnose first

    Fixed drivers power windo

    Well, things happen only to me. I just came home from a frustrating morning. Paid a shop $75.00 to install a window regulator. I posted above. Well still went down, not up. We tried new regulator, which I bought over 2 years ago. Nos Ford stock. Nope, same thing. Weird thing on Ford's, you can't...

    Fixed drivers power windo

    Well here's a good one guys. My 2000 expedition drivers side power window stopped going up It goes down ok. I've tried a different switch, the old one and new one check fine with ohmmeter. I ordered yet another switch off eBay. At the glass shop, that's what he thinks. Have tried another motor...

    1 st edition oil burner.

    We'll guys/girls. If your 97-02 Expedition/F150 is burning oil, I mean a lot, like a quart every 600 miles or so, and you've got no smoking, no old motor bad rings smell, then do as I did. Just out of a hunch, I swapped out my PCV valve. Even though the old one rattled when you shook it, it was...

    2000 4.6L ac hoses and condenser replacement - what a PITA!

    I was reading your earlier post from August. First off, always, always compare old o rings to new, second, whenever you can, get a kit from AC specialist, not some company selling cheap, and third, your recharge shop should have drawn vacuum to be sure all is sealed up. You never just throw in 3...

    Cylinder 4 misfire plus EVAP System Monitor and Catalyst Monitor won't complete cycle

    It is weird that your crank position sensor would only effect #4 cylinder. Did it in effect fix your uphill stumble? I too, would have thought like the dealer did, on condemning your number 4 valve/spring. I know it's a pain, but you might want to pull that passenger side valve cover, and...

    2000 4.6L ac hoses and condenser replacement - what a PITA!

    I have same vehicle but with the larger motor. Luckily I haven't done this job. The few things I have done are a P.I.T.A.Biggest problem is they built a motor that's too long for the body it's going under. If they would have made a flip up cab , like large trucks have, or just made a small bit...

    Keys, keyless entry and key fob won’t work on 2000 Expedition. Husband locked his key fob in the truck. Help!

    This is why I had a valet key made at hardware store years back. I keep it in my cloth grocery bag, along with my wallet. As one of the others stated, use your door passcode on drivers door. It's saved me a time or 2. This might sound a little nuts, but local police usually keep a lockout kit in...

    Cabin filter in 2000 Expedition?

    I too have a 2000. Some parts listing show a part #, but their is no factory installed filter anywhere. I've heard that some dealerships did install units at their dealer, but their pretty rare. Best advice is keep top of dash clean and dust free, remove vents coverings in middle, and use long Q...

    2000 expedition 35mph and nothing more

    WOW, I need to spell check more. It's limp mode not lump, reflashed not replaced. You might find some dealers can't reflash beyond 2005. Some can. Also the tech will need to diagnose problem, before reflash. Good luck
