I got it back on.. Only have it torqued down a bit..You can read the torque sequence below which is two stages.. But, the instructions installing the thermostat, calls for 18lb/ft .. I would think that would be uneven.. Is this an error in the manual or is this the way you do it?

Got it done, and stepped on another snake.. RockAuto sent a mislabeled pulley part.. Sending it back and trying to follow label instructions is not fun, specially if it’s not your fault..

Yeah. If you're ordering parts for a 2000 Expedition, and your motor is a Frankenmotor from another year and unknown origin you are going to run into issues ordering any engine accessories. Ford used different pulleys and timing covers, etc.... between years and car vs truck motor applications. My nephew just went through this hassle with an old F150 farm truck. Turns out it has an old crown vic 4.6 replacement motor in it. Belts and pulleys all different from the F150's original motor.

What do you use on the EGR line and coupling from the exhaust? Teflon tape, anti seize, or nothing at all?

Finally went to turn her over, and nothing.. Battery voltage was good, but load test was not good.. So..
Anyway, I have things setup to flush the engine block, before hooking the radiator up..Also, if I need to step back in the compartment to reach something..
