    290 Degree tranny fluid

    Update: I had an extended warrenty on this expo but found out last Dec the company, API, filed for bankruptcy. I had to shell out 900 for Ford to fix an oil leak on the engine. Go figure, 80 in parts the rest in labor. I figured if I had any chance to get reimbursed I needed to stay with...

    290 Degree tranny fluid

    Yeah it's pointing in that direction. The fluid pressure on my obd has been proven wrong and I'm leaning the same way about the fuid temp. I just towed the boat Friday and the trans worked as it should. I will continue to troubleshoot.

    Low idle speed = bad IAC

    Just want to pass on how I fixed my low idle problem. Our 03 expe is the wifes, she told me last week it would sometimes die or have very low rpm at stop signs or waiting in traffic. I have recently did a TBI swap on to my jeep so I had some idea how how this IAC thing worked. I have also...
