    Selling an Immaculate 1998 Ford Expedition

    Thanks to everyone!!! Davey, I'm certainly willing to post a photo or two, but I get a message that the file size is too large. How does one shrink the photo file size so that it will be accepted?

    Selling an Immaculate 1998 Ford Expedition

    I would like to get some suggestions on how to go about selling an auto and increasing the chances of getting top dollar for it. I THINK I'm about ready to buy a new vehicle and I'll likely want to unload my current 2nd auto which is a 1998 Expedition Eddie Bauer. I purchased the truck new in...

    08 expedition el motor issue

    I'm no expert, but do you still have the old passenger side camshaft position sensor. If so, put it back on and see if the "clunking sound" goes away. I suggest this because you indicated the clunking sound did not appear until this sensor was replaced.

    Tail gate wont open.

    You probably will NOT need to replace the entire cable as the end is what breaks off. You will likely only need this part: This was used for my 1998 Expy, but I suspect the 99 is the same...

    Tail gate wont open.

    Yes, you can remove the tailgate plastic cover from the inside. You'll need to crawl back there from the inside. Once the cover is removed you can release the tailgate so that it goes up! I've repaired the broken cable and its not bad at all! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyL4xWT7Xts

    Dashes in odometer

    If I'm not mistaken, those dashes would normally be filled with letters indicating the general direction you are heading ....... E, SE, W, SW, etc. Something may be wrong with your compass now as well??? Or, you need to run it through the calibration mode if necessary. Your owner's manual...

    gas tank vent valve won't come out

    Unfortunately, that valve is not removable nor serviceable. Mine also had a very, very small hairline crack. I was able to thoroughly clean the part and then apply a J-B Weld product that was waterproof, petroleum, chemical and acid resistant. That was 3 years ago and it's still doing its job. I...

    A/C Problems

    Trainmaster, >> Are you referring to the temperatures and pressures I had mentioned (tvlunn)?? Also, when I get a chance, I'm going to take a look at the reading of the sensor Dustin had mentioned in his post. I'm assuming I should be able to get a reading after it has sit overnight in my...

    A/C Problems

    That's very interesting Dustin! I need to check into that myself. That may be my primary issue ............... and likely is! Is the wiring leading to the sensor you mentioned easily seen once the glove box door is opened or removed? One could likely determine the "error" in the existing...

    A/C Problems

    I will share a little information with you for what it's worth: Based on what I've "heard" others say, this particular model Expy doesn't seem to have the best AC system. I say this because I have a 2008 Expy which I purchased NEW! Straight off the lot that very hot day in July 2008, I felt the...

    TPMS Concern - Who Knows For Sure

    I will be replacing all 4 TPMS sensors on my 2008 Ford Expedition in the next month or so. According to the RockAuto website, there are two listings for my vehicle: TPMS3 - 6F2Z-1A189-A TPMS4 - 7L1Z-1A189-A I'm sure there is a reason for RockAuto having two different listings, but I...

    TPMS Fault

    Just a quick question for you folks since you are talking about the TPMS sensors for the Expedition. I have a 2008 Expedition that was purchased new and I have never had an issue with any of my sensors as of YET. The sensors are attached to a strap that goes around the inside of the rim. I'm...

    new to me 08 question about rear air struts...

    I'll share one thing with you that might be worth looking at. I had to replace the two air bags on the rear of my Expy about 2 years back as it was leaking down somewhat similar to what you have described. The bags, as they flex up and down during driving AND with age deterioration, will develop...

    2008 AC Charge Clarification

    I do have a refrigerant charging manifold set, as well as a scale for weighing in the refrigerant. My issue was I became confused as to how much refrigerant to use when I saw that a couple of other individuals were "adding" the front and rear values listed to obtain the total amount. I honestly...

    2008 AC Charge Clarification

    Thanks Motorcity Muscle! I was simply confused when a couple of other post I found by Googling stated you needed to ADD the two weights to get the correct refrigerant charge. It appears I did interpret the information correctly from the beginning and the correct charge is 2.06 lbs as you have...

    2008 AC Charge Clarification

    I need to evacuate and fill my 2008 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer WITH auxiliary air. The sticker on the underside of the hood with charge information is shown below. The way I read the sticker, is that a charge of 1.37 lbs is required if the vehicle does NOT have auxiliary air OR 2.06 lbs is...

    A/C Expert Opinion Please!

    Hamfisted, I think I realize why you feel the plate is not completely up against the valve. There does appear to be a gap between the valve body and mounting plate making it appear it isn't tightened down enough. I looked again and the plate fits up against where the AC tubing has a "bulge"...

    A/C Expert Opinion Please!

    Thanks Hamfisted! Yes, I'm the original owner! I went and checked the retaining bolt. It was tight. I did loosen it just a tad, and snugged it back in place. That convinced me the bolt was tight as it should have been! I guess I'll order the valve from RockAuto. It appears it does NOT come...

    A/C Expert Opinion Please!

    2008 Expedition Eddie Bauer 5.4 liter engine. I moved the truck out of the garage and noticed a small wet spot about half the size of a dime. At first at thought, oh no, an anti-freeze leak. The leak was located just behind where the passenger front wheel was parked. Crawled underneath and...
