    AWD Drive acting weird

    We had some snow the other day and my wife used 4WD Hi (I have AWD, 4Hi, 4Lo) on my 2000 Ford Expy - 5.4L. She stopped, moved it back into AWD and took off again. After about 50 feet she heard a loud pop. Ever since then, the truck seems to be stuck in 4WD. I took it to my local mechanic...

    Still Missing....5.4L

    An update: Drove it around this evening and it's still missing pretty bad, especially around 1500 - 2000 RPM under load. Makes the "chugging sound". We live on a mountain and climbing up, the CEL starting blinking but then went off once we leveled out.

    Still Missing....5.4L

    Hi all, need some help...but first a little background... About 2 weeks ago, my engine started performing badly with no power. Check engine light eventually came on and then started flashing. Trip to my mechanic and he said #7 cylinder was misfiring and it needed a new coil. $140, new coil...
