    Opinion on Oil additives

    Anyone have opinions on these? The wife was talking to a neighbor about "how great their car runs" with Lucas Oil additive in it. She wants me to put that in our Expy. My mechanic says to avoid it, along with any kind of additive. Oil only, he said. I'm fine with that, since that is all...

    04 Shelby Expedition

    God awful ugly. I've seen better looking trucks on this site. 4x4's are not meant to be modded like that.

    01 4.6 Expy severe misfire after rain

    Wow. I was just cruising through the threads, reading, and man, am I glad I read this one. I was just thinking about power washing my engine next weekend. Glad I haven't yet.

    Blew a plug after seafoaming

    Sea Foam So, if I add it to my gas tank, that's it? It cleans out the fuel system?

    Door Ajar light always on

    Close this thread! Thanks for the help. Tried the WD40 on all doors, and the glass latch. TADA! The wife even noticed. "Hey, what did you do to the truck? The door ajar light isn't on anymore."

    Anyone know the name of this part or the part numbers?

    Door handle trim I would seriously try an auto salvage yard, pick a part, or whatever they are called in your area. A lot of Expeditions went to these places after Cash for Clunkers program, and most of the time, the only thing wrong with them is the engine is frozen by the dealerships they...

    Cold air intake

    Cai I agree with Eric. The K&N air filter is worth the purchase, but not their "Cold Air Intake". It seems that higher revving engines get more out of them than our big V-8's.

    Cold air intake

    Cai Glad to see this topic come up. I was planning on getting one too, but wanted to ask what the best set up is for the money. I had a 92 Honda Civic that I put an aluminum AEM CAI on, and it was great. I picked up 7-10 hp, and increased mpg by about 5. I measured the temp on mine after...

    Some A**hole shot my back window with a BBgun

    That sucks Dude - That is a pretty accurate number. I would suggest going to a pick-a-part place, and see if you can find one that has a expy that matches yours. They should have a lot of them, if it's old enough, because there were a ton of these turned in during the "Cash for Clunkers" era...

    Odometer goes off and on

    Flickering Odometer Just read through the post. Looks really good, and sounds like alot of people have done it.

    Door Ajar light always on

    GEM Module Just did a little reading, during my lunch hour. From what I've read, it appears that the GEM module could very well be the problem. Sounds like something out of my league. I may have to take it somewhere. I'm thinking of disconnecting the battery, because one of the things I...

    Door Ajar light always on

    GEM Module Could be. I know it's rattling around in the console right now... I'm gonna check out the rear door. Thanks.

    Turn an XLT into a eddie bauer?

    Older is easier. A lot of the EB features just get ignored on the XLT's. I don't know about the newer ones though...

    Door Ajar light always on

    So I just bought this Expy this month from a guy who is a self-confessing "not a car guy". I really like it, and more importantly, the wife likes it. He took pretty good care of it, for it being a 1999, and not garaged. I have been asking him a few questions recently though, as I am finding...

    Heated Side mirrors with Turn Signals

    Info on this I was reading through the owners manual of my 99'. It talks about heated mirrors, and blinkers also. The guy who I bought the expy from adhered some kind of mirror on the front of them though... Also, he removed the relay that runs that circuit. Douche. I'm working through the...
