Ford ExpeditionTrue expeditions require additional transportation conveyances: horses, boats, cars, for example. With a towing capacity around 9,000 pounds, the Ford Expedition can tow any of these. Ford adds a new top end King Ranch model for 2008, as well as an available rear backup camera and power-retractable running boards. The Expedition is meant for utility, not posing.
I have this 2001 Expedition. Sometimes it takes a while to start. It use to start quickly. Now it cranks for a while, then starts. It Also runs rough. The engine seems to loose power. RPMS go pretty high. Any suggestion on what could cause this problem?
The first and cheapest thing to do would be simply to replace the Fuel filter as it probably needs it either way.
Then you should check for vacuum leaks and also check the condition of your air filter.
If you search around on the forum here you will find instructions for cleaning the Mass Air flow sensor.
If none of this fixes the problem you may want to have a Trusted Mechanic do a diagnostic. It might also be worth while to stop at a parts store and have them check to see if there are any stored error codes in the computer.
Changed the fuel filter and that was the starting problem. Starts up fine now, but still running some what sluggish. Will try to clean mass airflow sensor. Thanks Bstedh.
