    2001 Expy new problem

    Ok; still trying to sort out this problem. I suspected that the battery could be the culplrit as it is getting bad. So I have a marine battery that is good and I jumped it to the vehicle battery after charging it. I did give the vehicle battery a bit of a top off. I first disconnected the...

    2001 Expy new problem

    Tires get flat spots if parked too long. I use chalk to mark where the tire meets the driveway and then try to repark it differently. My problem happens parked, in park, or in gear under load. Not too concerned with drivetrain issues.

    Help! P0171, making me pull my hair out!

    I wonder if the CAT on the affected side Bank 1 is clogged and impeding flow of air into the combustion chambers?

    Engine Studder, No Codes

    Those misfires should cause a Mode 06 count. I have a Scanguage II with XGuage and have programmed it to tally up the misfires on each cylinder. Usually it does accumulate misfires, but my new problem (I have a thread started) is not showing any misfire counts. When the count gets high enough...

    2001 Expy new problem

    Today I removed the air filter housing and MAF cone entirely. Gave the MAF another CRC-MAF cleaning as well as the mating connectors at the MAF and vehicle harness with CRC-Electrical cleaner. Then I tested at idle with the MAF connected and disconnected. I could not discern any difference with...

    2001 Expy new problem

    It seems to be shifting fine, though I am being careful not to subject too much strain on the transmission until I sort this out. I probably should mention the almost 3 year old battery is not in its best shape (drained repeatedly in storage) but has been cranking just fine.

    2001 Expy new problem

    I have owned this vehicle since about 20K miles in warranty. It has always been sensitive to dampness under the hood and has had , under warranty 3 coils and plugs replaced. At about 45K miles I had all the plugs changed by dealer (very expensive). I kept the plugs and the gaps very wide at 45K...

    2001 Expy new problem

    Yeah I am running it up to temp. It shows Closed Loop . I hope to simulate open loop by unplugging the MAF to see if it idles OK. Yesterday I cleaned the MAF with the CRC product to no avail. It is impossible to unplug the MAF when inside the "funnel". I will try again to remove the harness that...

    2001 Expy new problem

    I have no codes at all. Mode06 shows no individual misfires on any cylinder. It is as if the ECU thinks everything is fine.

    2001 Expy new problem

    My 2001 Expy 97K Miles has been sitting idle for quite a while, about 15 months with a run up every couple months. This week I decided to get it ready to sell so I went to start it and it seemed to be misfiring. I was not surprised because it has been raining and very damp. The thing is, it has...

    NEW version of FORScan

    I have both a 2001 and 2013 Expy. Is the new version backward compatible to those. For example there is a link to (CYAN LABS: Ford/Licoln AsBuilt Configuration Databases ) databases and when I go there it is all 2015 and newer. Am I missing something?

    2001 Expedition degrading wiper speed control

    The GEM/ Body control module sometimes gets rained upon due to poorly sealed windshield at driver A pillar. I did not realize that that mine was totally separated until the windshield cracked. The Safelite tech showed me that the paint had failed and so he had to clean it up (surface rust) and...

    What is this part

    Looks like an aftermarket fuse holder for a stereo.

    Letter to My Dealer

    My guess is that it costs 27,678 * ($0.74 postage + $1.00 Letter an envelope) = $48,159.72 , and 27,678 * ($5.10 airbag warning label installed by Porter) =$141,157.90. Total cost of campaign = $189,317.52 Or two maxed out 2025 Expedition models.

    Letter to My Dealer

    There is a post blaming UAW labor wages for the $85K trucks. Just putting it into perspective, that it is not UAW labor causing the high prices.

    Letter to My Dealer

    There must be 2,575 hours of UAW labor in that truck. Anyone spending $85K on a truck must be very wealthy or very dumb, if not. Actually $33 hr today, adjusted for inflation, is really not a lot of money for that kind of job. I made about $8 an hour way back in 1976 and was a new hire in...

    HOSED BY A HOSE....AT THE END OF MY ROPE.

    You would think there would be a puddle of coolant. If it does end up being a heater core hose, you might want to have the system evacuated and antifreeze topped off because there could be a bubble when you turn the heat on.

    Letter to My Dealer

    I have a Gen 1 and Gen 3 and the Gen 1 column shifter is burnt into my muscle memory. Though the Gen 3 has a "stick" selector, there is no gear selection indication in the cluster, so I have to look down while backing , etc which is not safe. The "stick" is a pretty ugly protuberance taking up...

    Letter to My Dealer

    There are two things driving the cost of automobiles; 1) Government fuel economy targets which are at this point in time unfavorable to the reliability of gasoline engines. This affects all brands. This is why you see trucks and SUV with turbo V6's pulling Airstream trailers and smaller...
