    Front A/C vents issue

    Hey guys, I'm sorry that I'm replying so late, I was very busy. Thanks for the info josh, I don't know if that's my problem. The other day I went to the part store to get some replacement parts, and I also needed some new vaccum lines, then I saw a a/c check valve and I told myself, let me get...

    I think it will fix ur problem like it did mine. I'm traveling next weekend from San Antonio to Denver, to visit my family, I will see how it does on a long drive.

    Hey Ed, I guess it's been a week since last time I wrote here. So everything is stillness fine, no codes and no fuel smell. I even went on a 4 hr drive out of town and still good. I hope you fixed your problem, it fixed mine.

    Drilling noise

    It sounds like from the engine compartment by passenger side somewhere. My wife was driving when I took the video, I was in the passenger seat, so that's the side I was recording.

    Maybe cam phasers? Timing chain?

    I drove mine for about 3 hrs yesterday, never heard the noise. The idle is normal, but I'm still going to change my spark plugs. I'm going to visit my father in law in a week, in Colorado, he is a retired mechanic, I'll ask him maybe he knows. I didn't find a TBS on it.

    Maybe cam phasers? Timing chain?

    My old expedition had this problem, when I would stop at the light, I would have my left foot on the break and with my right foot I would rev it up a lil bit so the engine don't die. My truck was under warranty, so the dealer fixed it, but it was in 2013, so I don't remember what was the...

    Drilling noise

    I found this video on YouTube, that's kinda the sound my truck makes, but not all the time, just once in awhile and for a few seconds, and mine sounds faster then the truck in the video.

    Drilling noise

    Thanks for the advice doc, but like I said I don't hear, see or feel any trans problems. It shifts smooth in all gears, And when applying gas pedal, there's no jerking or nothing, everything is smooth.

    Drilling noise

    No. It just happens once in a while not all the time, and it's jus for couple of seconds, so I don't have enough time to pull my phone out and record it. And I don't know when it might happen. It's really weird.

    Drilling noise

    Lol. I can here it with the window closed also, it's just not as loud, it's more suppressed.

    Drilling noise

    Hey guys still didn't find what might be the noise I'm having, maybe someone ran into this before. I would appreciate any help to find out what it might be. This strange thing happens with my truck, not every time I drive it, but some times. When I am stopped at a light and then press on the...

    Hello Ed, so I received my vent solenoid Thursday, and of course put it in as soon as I got it. I didn't write here the same day because I wanted to drive the truck around and s e what happens. Well I think it's time to give you some info on it. Drove the truck couple of time and every time I...

    4wd feels like brakes are on when turning

    Like other said before, don't use 4wd on pavement, you shouldn't use it for long trips either. Be careful, you are going to mess up your truck.

    A/C fan stops blowing on long trips

    Hey Fallingapart, I'm having the exact same problem. I have done a lone of research on this and couldn't find the fix, but I'm assuming I found what causes it to act up. Some people that have the same problem as us, say that the system freezes up on this long trips. When the a/c is on max, ice...

    03 4.6 swap?

    I agree with Bedrck, that's the only way u can find how to do it, or let someone that has done it before walk you through. You ain't going to find no article online or any YouTube video how to do it. It is to much to recorded and explain, or even write about it. If you get yourself a workshop...

    Thanks for the info. The test you posted is the new evap test, but I hear that the smoke test is a lot better, but it cost about $100 to let a shop test it for you. Unless you want to buy your own smoke tester, which is between $600 to $1200, can't afford that. But I am looking up how to make...

    The canisters I wouldn't say we're in the best shape, it's a 2003 truck, and I doubt they were every replaced. But them going bad is a very low percentage. When they go bad all the charcoal would just pour it of the hole when u inspected them. It's just a charcoal filter, filters the fumes...

    Thanks so much for your help. I was did a lot of research and found out that the vent valves go bad and they get stuck open. So when u run your truck it's supposed to be opened so the fumes can go through charcoal canister into the engine, and when u shot the truck off, the valve closes so the...
