    Misfire Cylinder 5? Second motor, and PCM?

    As simple of a solution as it sounds, it's not a solution. My registration has expired. It has to go thru inspection every 2 years {Arizona) and it is due this time. Which means the truck has to actually work. I haven't a test light for doing plug test. I did notice couple days ago...

    Misfire Cylinder 5? Second motor, and PCM?

    2006 Limited 2wd I struggled a while back with a code [cylinder 5 misfire] and I went thru everything. I changed the cam sensors. I pulled the phaser off to see if it was stuck. I examined the top end while valve cover was off [tend to drop rocker]. Injectors. Spark. Limp mode, the...

    Headlamps?

    I'm an electrician so I understand wiring just fine. I'm not looking for extra cool or what not. I replaced rear assemblies with same style (front are close to the ones already on truck). I just want function. I fixed door locks. Put in re-man engine/tranny, just want clean truck.

    I ordered these for replacements and wanted to get imput on lamps. I would like something bright, but controlled so it doesn't point in the face of oncoming traffic. Any suggestions please?

    What is the piece under panel that everything mounts to? I was fixing the outside handle and broke the upper clip that holds inside handle. Girlfriends kid yanked on it before unlocking it and broke it off completely.

    5.0 coyote swap?

    Back towards the beginning of the year I found a post either here or f150 enthusiasts about a harness for sells for $1500 to bolt a coyote into older Fords to run that motor into ecu and Trans controller and have everything working properly. I cannot for the life of me find that post. Before...

    Truck spent entire weekend with the PCM disconnected to get to bank 1, but I never tore into that side. I put all back together today so I can get it to work this week and deal with whatever comes later, later. I've been having a battery issue for a week or so now, it got drained from having a...

    Help needed 06 expo OBD2 codes

    I have ran that way, also with the position sensors unplugged at same time. There was no difference plugged or unplugged, runs exact same (at idle) (if it linked right) The noise at first is airflow in intake and fan. The ticking under valve covers is only noise it makes, and the power...

    I don't have a fuel pressure tester. I'm in Tucson Arizona, we are a dry warm climate, and I didn't pull the vvt off. I only opened one side, passenger side is a nightmare under everything.

    Help needed 06 expo OBD2 codes

    I have no valve train noise. It runs smooth and quite. First time today after work it cranked till I thought I would need a jump, but fired up at last second, otherwise it had been jerking ever so slightly for last few days like the fuel pump was going out. But the codes I got are all over...

    Factory sub.

    Essentially I was expecting 1000w max output on amp. Ok under powering speaker. But total 500rms/2000 on 2 subs at 12” makes no sense at all (math wise) when I can’t find amp that does 500wrms/2000w max at any ohm. I get either total match rms/no where near max or max match blown rms. Doing...

    Factory sub.

    Yeah I used Crutchfield wire diagram to wire subs and amp. I’m sure I got the strong end of the unicorn horn when I first started this. I bought the kenwood amp some time ago. It showed 1000w max when I got it. (Go easy, I’m nearing 47 years young) back in my day a 500w amp was 500w, there...

    Factory sub.

    I’m replacing with a dvc 4ohm but wired at 2ohm. It is rated at 600w rms/1200w max and under powering it with an amp @ 2ohms has 500w rms/1000w max. I worry how long the plastic box will hold up.
