    wiring problem?

    05 Excursion. Lights won't work so I can't drive it. Park lights come on but no headlights. The bright light indicator comes on but there are no head lights. Checked all the fuses, all ok. Any ideas before I have to take it in to the dealership and spend a couple hundred?

    Yellow/Green Diesel?

    Well, went in to Ford to get the new cap. $57. So, I ask the service manager if the cap is covered under the 5/100,000. He says yes but you will have to pay the $100 deductible. I say no problem, I am already in this $57, why not pay another $43 and have you guys run it and see if there is...

    Yellow/Green Diesel?

    Oh I am very happy the seperator did it's job. I am just finding it hard to believe that there could be that much crap in there in a tank and a half of fuel. I don't think they changed the filters and judging by the rust on the plug I am probably right. I will get the cap fixed because I...

    engine codes

    Just had the ICP replaced 2 weeks ago along with #5 injector and they flashed me for the first time. Started doing things it had never done before once I got it back. The tech said it was probably wire chaffing, never had it done under the recall. Runs fine 99% of the time, when not running...

    So what is a code that is not on there? I have a P2287 code, what is that? Also, if I have the P0404 and the P0405 codes what is that telling me, the EGR is going bad? It is going in on Tuesday to get the wiring harness replaced. Thanks Trapper

    Coolant Capacity / Lower hose cost ?

    I believe there was a TSB out for that lower hose rubbing. You might want to check the dealarship. They did mine for nothing. Trapper

    Similar Question to Crumm Plumber?

    Got it figured out, thanks for all the help fellas. The 1/4 inch nipple coming off the check valve in the garage was fuuuullllll of crap. I don't even know how water was getting through. The nipple broke off inside the check valve so I still have some work to do. I had to drill through the...

    Similar Question to Crumm Plumber?

    Am not sure about the check valve I don't have one in the garage and really don't want to pull 30 feet of pipe to look for it. The hole pump was replaced in August of 2003. I know that some of the pressure is leaking out because of a leaking outdoor faucet. What I am really looking for an...

    Similar Question to Crumm Plumber?

    Update, sort of. Guage and switch seem to be working. Guage clicks on at 30 and shuts of at 50. I have checked the air in my pressure tank 28 psi. I think I might have something clogging the pipe that goes to my guage and pump switch. The guage is really slow to react as well as the pump...

    Ever been taken by a salesman?

    Have to vent, long story I will try and make short. In August 2004 I purchased a dealer demo Expedition for the wife. Had 5,000 and some change on it. Got a great deal. One of the sticking points with me was the warranty. I asked the salesman when the 3/36 started on the vehicle because I...

    Tire Tread Question

    You should have less weight on the rear axle unless you are hauling or towing. If you put the good tires on the back they will wear a lot slower than the fronts. The front tires have more weight on them and wear faster because of that and the different camber angles when you turn. Better...

    Cheapest place for diesel

    Thanks for all the input guys. When it came down to it, I had no idea where in the world I was at and just ended up getting it at the nearest place to me. Paid 3.15 which was not to bad, it is only 2.79 here in Albany. There was a Tessoro or something like that that was only 2.95 but for some...
