2003 Ford Expedition Fuel Pump Relay (R303) Damaged
Here is the finished (spare OEM) fuse box ready to be installed once I get my quick connectors tomorrow. I realized that the second set of 'repair instructions' give the step by step to BYPASS the built-in fuel pump relay circuit by tapping into the appropriate and specific color coded loom...- CertusExpo

2003 Ford Expedition Fuel Pump Relay (R303) Damaged
Okay, this took longer than I thought because I changed my plan and redid the PCB connections. I didn't feel that butt soldering the wires directly to the board would hold up. So I researched then ordered and changed things. This was what I ended up doing. I'll be doing a full tech write-up...- CertusExpo

2003 Ford Expedition Fuel Pump Relay (R303) Damaged
Here is a Copy/Paste of the other instructions I located: “ So I know there is a bunch of people that like to replace the CJB (Fuse Panel). But remember that all you are doing is resetting back to the same potential problem being able to happen again. The circuit board was not designed...- CertusExpo

2003 Ford Expedition Fuel Pump Relay (R303) Damaged
I’ve been putting off attempting the external relay modification for years. I’ve been using a jumper to power the fuel pump for years. My Expedition has been sitting unused for just over 2 years. I’m returning to the office and need to get Bonnie road worthy once again. There are several things...- CertusExpo

What oil/filter do you use?
Decided to revive this old string as its been 2.5 years since the last update. NEVER heard the results of the T6 test from USMCBuckWild on Page 11. Is it still true ExplorerTom that the Walmart oil "scored VERY well"? I'm wondering if any opinions have changed as the prices of everything has...- CertusExpo

Stainless Steel brake lines, which brand?
Do you have the contact info for Goodrich? I need to get the specs for the hoses (length, end types, id's and od's of the ends, etc as I think I found a vendor that will manufacturer them for me (us) so we can all upgrade our brakes. Unless... One of y'all have those specs already.- CertusExpo

Stainless Steel brake lines, which brand?
Yeah... This is an old post but had a question and a comment. Question: If your brake lines are collapsed, is it possible the vehicle drive fine for a few miles and THEN start to feel like you're dragging an anchor? Comment: Had a guy custom make SS brake lines for my son's Durango back in...- CertusExpo

Prolonged un-driven Expy concerns!
UPDATE: I've only driven her locally as I didn't have confidence in taking her on long drives because she was shutting off randomly. I did notice one dark morning when I went to start her up and she kept shutting off that the fog lights kept on flickering in sequence with a relay clicking. I...- CertusExpo

Prolonged un-driven Expy concerns!
UPDATE: I decided to throw caution to the wind and take her to the car wash because (sitting since June 2022) there was quite the layer of dust. So, she drove fine at residential speeds however, once I got on the freeway and went to accelerate to freeway speeds, she started pinging like a can...- CertusExpo

Prolonged un-driven Expy concerns!
That's the thing. I've never replaced it because honestly, I'm scared to. I've read many stories about how after transmission maintenance has been neglected, that in many cases, the fresh fluid and it's detergents will make every fault and worn part completely noticeable. So I'm worried about...- CertusExpo

Prolonged un-driven Expy concerns!
Found my battery was bad. Bought a new battery and she started up but wouldn't stay running. Checked and heard the fuel pump functioning as expected. Then ran my fingers along all vacuum lines and found one chewed, possibly by a squirrel. Replaced and and she runs. Took her for a slow local...- CertusExpo
