Excellent video this just let you know that Ford doesn't want you too fix your own car to much money for something simple

It happened to my 98 expedition and it was a pain in the ass because its discontinued and they want you to get the hole set together. I had to take the manifold off way easier. And i just freshened up the gasket and spark plugs with new coils as well new thermostat with gasket as well with new sensors it was pricy but if you have commercial is cheap. Or know someone who is a mechanic can get it for you cheap

I know it's been a year, but I am so disappointed the design and parts used to build the newer vehicles. I've had 30 year old vans that even after that long, don't have the stupid little mission impossible what should take half an hour takes days if at all. Mine did exactly the same thing,but fortunately it's a van,so I can pull the inner housing and the pipe is totally accessable. But it's either spend a grand or more having a mechanic do it.

Howdy! It is awesome. I did the plugs on that Ford about 8 years ago and even taking the wheels off and nearly setting the brake rotors on the ground I had a bruise across my entire chest for weeks. It's a Traxion 3-100 topside creeper. Got it from Amazon for under $200. Kind of a faf to put together but it's worth every penny.

Sorry. Misunderstood. Autozone had the tube but I could not get it inserted. The interference is huge. I'd suggest threading the hole and using plumbing fittings instead. My repair is still going well with no leaks.

Did you ever consider puttin JB weld over the hole? I might have to do this fix as well and wondered if that was an option.
@aaronsrose5 жыл бұрын
I thought about it, but the location and difficulty getting to it, you'd need to remove the manifold just to try the epoxy. At that point, might as well use plumbing fittings. Thanks!

Hey Aron, I have a 1997 f150 with a 5.4 in it, Same Oxford white and same trim as yours! The whole ac/ heating system have been take out from the previous owner, the metal tube that’s pierced on yours is capped on my truck, with a rubber cap. I have to replace the damn cap every 7/8 month because I live in Florida and coolant start leaking. Toke the truck to couple of shops, they all told me to keep on just replacing the rubber cup. Where the hell does that metal hose should connect to?!?! Your engine is the first one I see that ever match mine
@aaronsrose3 жыл бұрын
I think it was 97 only they did that. The hose goes to one side of the heater core to supply heat. If yours still has heat they must have found another source. Starting in 98, I think, that house was relocated to the front passenger side of the intake manifold. The manifold was changed to plastic in some places as well. You might be able to source a later model intake manifold with the modified hoses from a junkyard and swap it out.
@giuseppefasano2103 жыл бұрын
@@aaronsrose thanks for the prompt reply, mine doesn’t have a heater core, in Florida we don’t need one, but they capped the tube, and the only cap I can find are rubber, the engine heat destroy them every 7/8 month. I was trying to figure out a better solution, but I guess that without the heating core, the only solution is to keep it capped. Thanks !!!!

Would this be the same problem for my 98 expedition? There’s a puddle of ac right underneath manifold (right around where the bolt is to the Knock sensor) or if it’s not that metal pipe what else can it be ?
@aaronsrose4 жыл бұрын
If it's visible under the manifold in the front behind the alternator it's that stupid coolant pipe from the top of the water pump to the rear that runs under the manifold. Still need to remove the manifold but you can get replacement parts and it's not hard to install. I recommend doing the knock sensor and spark plugs while you're in there. It's a lot easier with the manifold off. Good luck!

Assuming your expy is a 5.4L, the part SHOULD be a Dorman 626-221 just like mine was. The 4.6L is different though. I got mine at autozone for about $45. You could probably get it from rockauto for about $35 if you didn't mind waiting for shipping.

@aaronsrose3 жыл бұрын
If it's an early model before they changed the coolant hose to the front of the intake I'd say that is the most probable cause. It could still be that stupid pipe under the intake, but that usually fills the intake valley and should be visible looking down behind the alternator.

Unfortunately, if it's the same as mine and the leak is from that pipe that sticks into the manifold, there's no way to bypass it. You'd need to cut it off below the leak and cap it. I don't think that can be done without removing the intake.
