    Its been said that opinions are like assholes and you good sir seem to have been blessed with 2. What compels you to log into a forum, where people come for advice and information, and proceed to be a dick? So far every opinion you have given has been derogatory or so far off the mark of what...

    After driving for 50 miles I think all 8 microchips in the injectors have gotten used to the airflow they competing with. It runs very smoothly now Sent from my SM-G977U using Tapatalk

    Changed out the fuel injectors on the '09, runs beautifully for now. The new coil pack and injector combo have smoothed it out and restored power. The transmission shifts very smoothly and way earlier. I cleaned out the throttle body that sits on top of the intake since it was pretty gunked up...

    I watched a video like this and fixed mine for the cost of a tube. Must be a mechanics dream, "sorry miss, we are going to need your car for a couple of days while we recongiure the flux capaciter"

    I replaced all of the original with cheapo chiese ones "ACCEL" I believe. I thought I had kept the original good ones seperate from the bad one but doubted my certainty so instead of taking a chance I replaced them all with verifiable motorcraft coilpacks. I now have seven good spares and 8...

    The rattle is definitely in the engine and not a heat shield rattling. Im not sure how else to verbalize a "slight misfire" without being even more incorrect. From what I have heard there are many signs of faulty positioning but I may be wrong. I scanned the codes and replaced the coil packs...

    So we have decided that we will most likely be repowering our 09', which in the Boating world is the term one would use for replacing the engine. That being said I am going to try a few things first for diagnostics and knowledge since we have enough vehicles to cover if this goes down on us in a...

    I have a 6.0 in my e350, I have it set on a tow haul tune after having it semi bulletproof and am happy with it. I did spend the $8000 on which is alot but I love the driving the damn thing, when it runs right as it has for the last 5 years since it was done. If I do go for one in the excursion...

    Sorry bud, I was using terms that are common in other areas and did not realize they would be hard to understand or easily agitate some individuals. I will do better to be more formal in the future while asking for help. I apologize for any added stress this may have caused. I was referring to...

    Thank you for your advice, we have serviced at all intervals for the most part and to date we have only needed to replace 1 battery and 1 water pump which has gotten us to 183000 miles. I'm not sure where the severe lack of maintenance is coming from. I think a few problems at nearly 200000...

    I guess you didnt see the part about the Nagivator wanting to keep it for sentimental reasons. I have shown her the list of things and she is intent on keeping it. Im trying to talk her into an excursion with a 6.0. Private party listings are between 7 and $10,000 while kelly bluebook trade...

    What did you do to the expy today

    '09 over the weekend we were able to remove the front license plate by misjudging the last bump in a row of ruts. Got to run it in 4 wheel drive for 2 miles or so on some fire roads. Today she is in the shop for diagnosis of a preexisting clank in the front. CPPS started rattling off for the...

    That is my understanding of the system as well, Thanks, I was thinking about it this morning and I should just drive around a big dirt lot in 4 and see if it makes the sound.

    Clank at font of Vehicle when accelerating from a stop 4x4

    So...On our 09 4x4 Xlt 5.4, we have a clanking sound that is coming from the front end. IT sounds a bit like when a UV joint is loose as the driveshaft turns and torque is applied. The difference being that it does not make the sound until it has been driven 25 to 50 ft. and the noise has...
