    Yes and the $3 capacitor and resistor do the same. Works great.

    Engine warm up

    We let all our vehicles warm up to normal operating temperature before driving. If that means running for 15 minutes on cold mornings so be it.

    Catch Can

    The JLT 3.0 kit F150 can fits the Expeditions perfectly. Mine came in this morning and just took minutes to install.

    Rear Diff Whine

    My '04 Expy had a rear diff whine since it rolled out the dealership 175,000 miles ago...still running fine. It's the gear lash shim setting from the factory. Was not worth fooling with.

    JLT oil catch can

    This will not help with piston ring blowby and fuel getting in the oil. That issue is caused by piston ring wear where the fuel in the cylinder gets by the worn rings into the crankcase from compression. All the catch can does is keep oil vapor out of the intake system for a cleaner burn on any...

    JLT oil catch can

    My JLT 3.0 just arrived this morning (ordered from JLT last week) Took only a few minutes to install on the '16 Expy. Took longer to read the instructions and gather tools. Rotate the intake PCV hose about 45 degrees on the can towards the fire wall and route the hose in between the two existing...

    Slight tranny slip and shudder when putting into gear when cold

    30 seconds warm up??? I'll never buy one of your used vehicles LOL. We don't drive anything thing until it reaches operating temperature. On our '16 Expy that means the engine oil temp reading "normal" not "low".

    Fuel gauge erratic movement

    Mine failed in the '04 a couple of years ago, just doing the mileage thing and filling at 300 miles. Someday I'll change the pump assembly.

    Vacation - Battery disconnect ?

    Get the original Battery Tender, not an imitation. If it's any consolation, I have a permanently installed under the hood a waterproof 6 amp charger and mine gets plugged in every night.

    Oil catch can.

    What year did the second gen Ecco come out in the Expys?

    Keyless entry pad

    OEM keypad is hardwire to the module. It sounds like the stick on wireless is just like a key fob and I would assume battery powered as well. I wonder how that will work in sub freezing temps.

    Expedition stumbled badly on interstate.

    And just as I figured... 5000 mile oil changes. There is piston ring wear and oil blow by. I never go over 3000 miles on any vehicle oil change.

    3rd brake lamp melting?

    Replace with LED bulbs or the whole assembly. The same happens to the lower brake lamps. This is caused by sitting in traffic or holding your foot on the brake waiting in a long bank or food drive thru. The incandescent bulbs get really hot. Just remember if you replace any individual bulbs...

    2017 3.5l ecoboost Expedition, any known issues?

    A friend of mine had had a '17 Expy rental for a month or so while his company van was being replaced...he beat the snot out of it like a sports car and put on 10K miles. LOL

    Eliminate Sun Glare from Hood Bulge?

    How to Manually get the Transmission into 6th gear under 40mph

    Gezz. Around town on the '16 I lock out 5 & 6...better for the engine and transmission. On all the others I lock out OD unless on the highways.

    Undercoating for rust prevention?

    Do you have an air compressor? With the kit it is easy. Napa Auto parts sells the kit and the film in 1 or 5 gallon pails or buy online from others. Another alternative is to rattle can it with Fluid Film, Lowes and others sell it. With the kit I only use the long extension wand for all exposed...

    need new tires

    Mich LTX MS2 on both expys, all pickups and the Grand Cherokee. Been running them since the early 1990's. Won't even consider anything else.

    Winter Startup Advice

    All our vehicles are warmed up until they reach operating temperature before being driven. On the '16 expy I wait until the engine oil temp reads normal.

    2003 or 2004 - which is better?

    Bought our '04 new in March '04, has about 175K on it. The only issues were the notorious blend door motor, an alternator, driver's door switch lights and blower resistor. Spark plugs and belt at 100K. Oil changes every 3K and other normal tune up stuff.
