    Oil smoke from back of motor STILL!!

    I'm guessing the head gasket is what is leaking the oil. Replaced a handful of them myself, seems to always be passenger side too. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    2007 expedition driver seat removal

    Depending on if it is a power seat and if it still works, you may have to move the seat to the full forward and full rearward positions to help get to the bolts once you have the correct tool for it. Hope this helps. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    How to get to 12v powerpoint on center console

    In case you were unaware, the top power point and the side console power point have different fuses. The top one shares a fuse with the obdII connector under the dash. Just to make sure you are checking the correct fuse Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2

    02 Expy heat problem

    I'm thinking plugged heater core myself, feel both heater hoses and see if they are both warm, if so its not plugged. If one is warm or hot and one is cold, core is plugged. Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2

    What's this hole in my head?

    That is the stock set-up. The heads are interchangeable from left to right and if you look at the front of the left head you will see the same hole only it is used for coolant passage IIRC. They just install galley plugs in the back of the head depending on what side the head goes on, that way...

    wheel bearing

    What part is stuck? I had to use an air hammer on mine, you can use it to push the center of the cv axle if its stuck. Mine were stuck in the housing and I just left the bolts threaded in a half dozen turns or so and used the air hammer on the head of the bolts to push the hub from the housing...

    wheel bearing

    Did both my rear hubs not long ago, I used a 36 and it seemed to work just fine. Plus if it is 35, that little difference isn't enough to cause any harm. But if you buy the 35 and its actually a 36 it may not fit. Just do the 36

    04 EB 4x4 - Front End Noise Noticeable Above 50 mph

    Have you checked the rear hubs for looseness or noise? When I bought mine both rear hubs were loose but with all the tire noise I had it was impossible to hear them. I had it on my hoist one day looking it over and found the loose rear hubs.

    04 EB 4x4 - Front End Noise Noticeable Above 50 mph

    What you are describing is dead ringer of a bad wheel bearing, only you said you replaced one with new and then swapped the old one with the remaining on the opposite side correct? So unless you had 2 noisy bearings and the noise is still there on one side because of it.

    04 EB 4x4 - Front End Noise Noticeable Above 50 mph

    You try rotating the tires? A cupping tire will cause noise and vibration, just be sure the tires aren't all cupped the same as to give you the same noise even after rotated.

    Lock Problem and Window

    Door lock actuators are toast. They get weak and stop working for a while, then start working again. If cycled several times they will stop again. Replaced many ford door lock actuators for this issue.

    99 issues with head change

    Make sure the bolt length is correct for all fasteners under the timing cover. I saw one about 6 years ago that a bolt that was too long, was installed in the wrong location and catching the crankshaft in certain spots. If I remember correctly I think it was a timing chain guide bolt that was...
