    You will not regret the smoke machine. I have used mine several times to diagnose issues. It paid for itself with the first repair.

    IWE Test.. Now at a Loss

    https://www.blueovaltrucks.com/tech-articles/everything-you-wanted-to-know-about-the-iwe-system-and-then-some/ Maybe this will help with your troubleshooting. Also I recommend a smoke machine. Invaluable for finding vacuum leaks. Good luck!

    '04 EB 5.4 - Transfer case issue

    With 204k mi, it would be worth checking all the vacuum lines. Especially the big elbow on the back of the intake (I can’t remember if it’s connected to the throttle body or the intake manifold, buts it’s back there.) Check all the rubber elbows, hard lines, and connection points. There could be...

    BTW, if anyone needs it, here is the intake manifold tightening sequence from FordTechMakuloco online.

    Finished. No more SES light or P0170 and P0174 codes. Runs great, but there is quite a bit of steam coming out the tail pipe. I'm hoping that it's from coolant that found it's way into the cylinders when I removed the intake manifold. I'll drive it around and check it tomorrow. Goes without...

    Could someone help me confirm the torque specs for the throttle body assembly and intake manifold? I have found the following online: Throttle body assembly = 7 ft lbs Intake manifold, 1st = 85 in lbs, 2nd = 18 ft lbs Thanks!

    2004 Eddie Bauer premium sound radio wiring diagram

    I recommend Crutchfield . Look for an install kit for the type head unit that you are installing. Way easier than trying to figure out and splice the wires.

    Yes, insulating box present. The parts guy said Ford was going to release 8 of them in January. 8 for the whole nation!

    I found a new Motorcraft manifold at a local dealer! $255.01 out the door! So thankful! Inspecting with my novice eyes, the seals appear to be intact. No obvious signs of leaking. Hoping the plugs look normal when I take them out tomorrow. So far it's not too difficult. It's meticulous, but it's...

    Looking online for a Motorcraft manifold. So far can't find one. Tried Amazon, Ford Parts Giant, Rock Auto.

    Started on this project today. It's going pretty well except for one of the nipples broke off the EGR pressure feedback sensor while removing the hose. The plastic is brittle and crumbles easily. Ordered new Motorcraft sensor. However, more importantly... I cannot remove the coil from cylinder...

    Getting ready to start this job today. Thankfully the garage has warmed up to a toasty 42 degrees. LOL. Based on forum posts, it doesn’t seem super common for injectors to fail, but it does happen. Nobody’s mentioned it yet, so I thought I’d ask. Should I replace the injectors while I’m there...

    Thanks Drae. Added temp sensor to the list. Great ideas for marking and remembering where things go.

    Copy on the injector O-rings, torque wrench, crossover gasket, thermostat, Zerex G-05, hose on the rear of the throttle body, and spare plugs for injector/coil connections. Thank you. Seems like Motorcraft spark plugs are hard to get around here. My local Napa Auto has NGK Iridiums, Ruthenium...

    Thanks whtbronco. Great input! Thanks for looking up and posting the hours. Thanks Hamfisted. Excellent idea. Actually, I discovered the following YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJJTlDrCaUQ by FordTechMakuloco. It doesn't seem like it's too bad of a job. If the book says 6 hrs like...

    Thanks riphip. Many of the hoses, elbows, and the PCV have been replaced. I specifically looked for smoke behind the battery. As far as I can tell the vac/evap systems are intact.

    P0171 & P0174 and Service Engine Soon Light

    Yes, I looked for several minutes with a bright flashlight. I scanned every hose that I could put my eyes on. There may have been a little bit of smoke at the last cylinder, same side, but I couldn't tell if it was a leak or if it was smoke carried over from the IAC. The brake booster, vac...

    Great idea Hamfisted! I inserted the smoke at the top of the throttle body elbow as suggested. I got smoke from the usual suspects - IAC, EGR and side of the throttle body, but no smoke at the brake booster or booster hoses. However, I did find smoke coming out from under the fuel injector of...

    2004 5.4 EB. Service engine soon light came on. Idle is occasionally a tiny bit rough, but otherwise runs fine and there is no other indication of a problem. Used BlueDriver to check for codes. I received the following: I cleared all the codes and the SES light went out, but light and codes...

    Fuel Pump Relay R303 Replaced

    Just completed my 2nd relay replacement on my buddy’s 2004 EB. His relay failed identically to mine. Thankfully installing the new one was uneventful. It’s a great feeling to turn the key and hear the engine start right up.

    2006 Eddie Bauer - Add back up camera and new screen

    Here is how I mounted my backup camera. I routed the wiring up through the existing boot at the top of the lift gate, through the headliner, down the drivers side A-pillar, through dash to the stereo location. The routing of the wire is not technically difficult, but it is a little tedious. It...
