    2008 Expedition XLT clunking when accelerating and slowing down.

    It does sound like it’s coming from inside the transmission. Although it seems to me more audible in the rear. The noise could just be traveling down the drive shaft. I have 282,000 miles.

    2008 Expedition XLT clunking when accelerating and slowing down.

    2008 Expedition is clunking when accelerating and when coming to a stop. This only happens at low speeds. I changed the u joints as this seemed like where the sound was coming from. This didn’t fix it. I put a camera on all 4 wheel wells and on the rear differential and transmission. I posted...

    Oil inside spark plug holes on 2008 expedition

    My expedition has 250k miles. The engine was running rough with a misfire code. I changed the spark plugs and coils and I found oil on two of the plugs and coils. After researching forums, others seem to say it's the valve cover gasket, so, I bought a new one and I'm now waiting for the parts to...

    Strong fuel smell coming from rear passenger wheel well

    I drove it to the gas station, put in a full tank, came back and 3 miles later, everything is fine, no major leaks. I haven't noticed the fuel smell. I will continue to monitor.

    Strong fuel smell coming from rear passenger wheel well

    Be sure to clean the gasket seat on the tank before putting in the new o ring. My method: have two rags, one in each hand, one rag goes inside the tank, act like you are trying to clean the inside of the tank just under the lip of the hole. This protects dirt from getting inside the tank. The...

    Strong fuel smell coming from rear passenger wheel well

    Ok boys, the new fuel pump is installed. The connector below didn't want to connect, I had to use the clamp below on one side to get the pressure I needed to get it to snap on. While pushing tight and gentle wiggle. Other than that nothing else really gave me too much trouble. Keep in mind if...

    Strong fuel smell coming from rear passenger wheel well

    I went with: Spectra Premium SP2131M Fuel Pump Assembly. I don't know what makes it premium. But it's one step up from their other model. I got it off Amazon prime. I only had to pay $10 extra for overnight shipping.

    Strong fuel smell coming from rear passenger wheel well

    The replacement fuel pump comes with a new fuel pump gasket. Taking the tank off is tedious. I had a half tank of gas I siphoned into my Ford Fusion. Given the high mileage on the vehicle, I'm not so up set about replacing the pump itself. I think that the pooling of fuel on the top might have...

    Strong fuel smell coming from rear passenger wheel well

    I have a 2008 Expedition. Noticed a mild-strong fuel smell that occurred intermittently. Noticed with a flashlight pointed through the rear passenger wheel well, was a dark spot. I dropped the spare tire, took off the rear wheel, took off the fuel intake hose, and dropped the tank. On further...

    Strong Fuel Smell after Refueling

    I had strong fuel smell. Seemed to come from the rear passenger wheel well area. I took off the fuel tank. Picture is related. I'm waiting on my overnight shipping on a new fuel pump. I thought that it could have just been the gasket. I broke a piece of the fuel pump taking it out.
