    Spots on driveway

    I woud go with a flareless fitting splice. they work great. if you can find the line it usually comes as a set and is very pricey. YOu could also cut the line and slightly flare the ends and use a quality hose and clamps also.

    somethings wrong with???

    sounds to me like the awd is engaging due to a speed difference between the front and rear axles. this could be tire size/wear issue or a speed sensor problem.

    Yes or No

    I would change it. A "flush" is fine just make sure they do not use a cleaner first- just exchange the old for new mercon v. A pan drain and filter replacement is fine also just remember to drain the convertor also.

    How much HP can a E4OD handle??

    A 4r100 is basically an upgraded e4od and it is what is behind the deisels up until the 6 speed came out. it is strong as any stock tranny. a programmer to change the shifts and up the pressure[ a little] can help also.

    missfire at 40Mph and yellow warning lamp now on

    If I were you I would get a trustworthy tech to ck it. you probably have 1 bad coil and need all your plugs changed. Changing the plugs will cost you as they have a tendency to break off and need a special tool and time to remove [the plugs are expensive too].

    need help! 1999 Expedition starting and column issues

    The starter staying on could be the solenoid on the firewall near the battery. Is it getting into park? if it isn't ck the cabel adjustment at the trans.

    Horsepower/mpg gain??

    to get better mpg and free up HP you have to reduce load and/or increase efficiency. electric fans, better aerodynamics, and tires made for effeciency will all help. some programmers may help mpg and HP if done right. Other than that if you want good mileage get a Fiesta.

    codes P0401 & P1131

    p1131 is sensor 1 bank 1 meaning pasenger side upstream, but it could also mean you have a vacuum leak. p0401s most likely cause is the dpfe sensor that comes off the egr tube or is part of the egr depending on the year. some early 4.6 and 5.4 can also have a problem with the egr passages in the...

    yes, not as likely as a coil but possible. If you have an 05 it is more likely they had a recall on the injectors.

    type of oil and weights?

    yes ford truck gas v8s and v10s up to the 3 valve used 6 qts, 5.4 and 6.8 3 valves use 7 qts. I mix the oils to get some benefits of the diesel 15w40 and to keep a relatively thin oil for my 210k mile engine. these oils are the same brand and are both semisythetic.

    does the odometer read numbers or just dashes? if it reads dashes ck the wiring harness in the lf wheel well especially if you have oversize tires as they can get rubbed through and short out at times.

    1998 Expedition - Renew or Replace

    Keep it! the newer ones are nice but a lot more problems. The dealer wont give you anything for the 98. I would buy something newer if you want but keep the 98.
