Problems with Long Cranking - 2006 Expedition

[gjgruber]

Greetings,

I really appreciate this forum and the replies that are received. They are most helpful.

I went to a local repair shop and I received the following feedback to the problem that I am having with the long cranking on my 2006 Expedition.

TECHNICIAN'S COMMENTS:NO CODES AVAILABLE. NO MISFIRES AT PRESENT TIME
TEST FUEL PRESSURE ON LONG CRANK. LET IT SIT FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME FUEL
PRESSURE WOULD BOTTOM OUT AT 5 PSI AND TAKE AWHILE TO COME BACK UP. ONCE IT 5
PSI IT STARTD. RETURNLESS SYSTEM.
FU 0 J REMOVE FUEL TANK AND DRAIN. REMOVE AND REPLACE FUEL PUMP MODULE ASSEMBLY. Labor $242.97 Parts. $599.00
REASSEMBLE AND RETEST. 0.00
1.00 FUEL PUMP MODULE $599.00

My question.. does it seem excessive to have the Fuel Pum Module part costing $599? I went to EBAY and priced these fuel pump moduels between $225-$275. I do not want to pay more for a part than necessary. Does this price range on EBAY sound more reasonable or is the $599 more accurate?

Does anyone know the exact part number for a 2006 Ford Expedition 5.4 4X4 Eddie Bauer and how much I should expect to pay for this part?

I would greatly appreciate the continued replies to my questions.

Again thanks...

Best Regards,
Jerry

that sounds about right...that what my dealership quoted me...$700+...but i bought the part for $300 and hooked up with thermo and we changed it out

Silly question, but how many miles since the fuel filter was changed? Does it start better is you turn it to ON, wait a few seconds, shut it off, and try to start it like normal?

I had a simular problem with my 2003 expedition 5.4. What it turned out to be the pick up tube had a hole in it from rubbing against the fuel pump assembly. I replaced the whole assembly and have not had anymore problems. The replacement part has a protective sleeve over the tube.

Ask tasca about the price in the vendor section.

Make for sure the filter isn't clogged first. The. Make sure their isn't an obstruction in the line or pinched line anywhere before you go for the module. Check low cost fixes and more common fixes first before you pay for the expensive once right off.
