    idle surge in drive only

    I replaced mine with a duralast part from autozone. I don't know if it's entirely necessary to spend 2-3 times as much to go with the motorcraft part.

    idle surge in drive only

    Did you replace the IAC, or just clean it? Any codes? I had some of the same symptoms you're describing and had a CEL related to the IAC. I cleaned it, and still had issues. Then replaced it, and the idle has been normal since.

    99' expedition replaced one rear air spring

    Is the air compressor switch under the passenger side dash turned back on? If it were me (and I already did) I'd replace both air bags with coils and forget about the air ride.

    Won't stay running

    Is it throwing any codes? Mine had the same symptoms and I sprayed some carb cleaner through the throttle body and it helped for a while, but then it threw a code related to the IAC. I'm now in the process of cleaning the entire upper intake manifold elbow including the IAC. It's really nasty...

    Differences between model year upper intake elbows?

    Taking apart my upper intake to get it all cleaned out, one of the EGR bolts broke off in the elbow. Are there any differences between the model years for the 5.4 engines? I've got a '97 and am looking to just buy another one from a yard or ebay and not mess with trying to extract the broken...

    different pcm now truck wont start

    Basically what this is saying is if a new PCM is installed, you can reprogram the newly installed PCM to your existing keys and everything will work just as it should? No need to take the vehicle to the dealer to reprogram the PCM or PATS?

    New PCM questions for '97 Expy

    Tell me more about some of these aftermarket tunes. I don't plan on doing anything serious to the engine as far as performance upgrades (i.e. no headers, no exhaust, etc.) I like the fact that I can change things by myself when I want to with a hand held tuner device, but it's becoming more of...

    New PCM questions for '97 Expy

    I've got some questions about installing a new PCM into my '97 expo. From what I can tell, either a '97 or a '98 PCM will work no problem, but what else do I need to get it to work? I've ready something about the PATS system and getting the keys to work so the truck will start, but I don't know...

    Anyone running an Edge Programmer?

    Looks like Mark is out till Nov. 5th at SEMA...I guess I won't be getting anything figured out anytime soon then. Called Edge again, and they said it will absolutely not work on the '97 expy, and none of their newer decives will support the '97. Does anyone have specifically a '97 with any of...

    Anyone running an Edge Programmer?

    I'm only looking to get a little boots in fuel economy with a tuner, and I'm not looking to spend any more money than I really need to in order to accomplish that. I got the tuner off ebay, for what I think was a good deal, and would really like for it to work for my truck. I also like the fact...

    Anyone running an Edge Programmer?

    Well, I reset the unit via the Fusion software thanks to the guys at Edge, but it still did the same thing to me when I tried to update the tune. It would write all four files, then state the PCM wasn't responding. This is after I had driven the truck around for 10 minutes or so and got...

    Anyone running an Edge Programmer?

    Is anyone using a Edge Evolution 15050 on their expy? I'm having some difficulties with it on my '97 and am wondering if I should continue to try and get it to work. I tried installing the towing tune, and once it was complete it stated the PCM was not responding and to unplug the unit and plug...

    Need help on a purchase today on a Edge Evo HT tuner

    I'd go for it. If you don't like it later on, you can always get rid of it, and probably come out ahead. I just got myself a Edge 15050 off ebay for a smoking deal, and am waiting for it to come in next week.
