Notices

Ford Expedition True 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.

Default 2000 Exp. hot starting problem
New member- just joined yesterday and glad to find you guys. I have a 2000 Exp. 5.4 that has developed a starting problem this summer. Starts great when cold or after a brief shut down but if driven for say 2 hours and then shut off for 45 minutes or so, I have to wind and wind before its starts. Sometimes it almost seems as if when I let go of the key, it starts but can't be sure if it was just ready to go then or not. Never notice black smoke and fuel filter has been changed regularly. Runs great. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks

Take a trip up to Autozone or O'reilly Auto Parts. They can check out your battery & alt for free. It's a start.

It's turning over good and charging. It's just that it spins over but doesn't start for a while when it does this. Thanks
