We still have this setup. The 4x4 Ram/Cummins has 200k on it now. We bought it new and it's still going strong. The Lance camper has been great for my wife and I and two dogs. We've been on long vacations with it and have often sat in it saying "I can't believe we are sitting in the bed of a...

Your'e right about the RV manufacturers and their own warranty. I can do all the RV repairs. I just wanted the peace of mine of having a brand new drivetrain to deal with and a factory (Ford) warranty. So lucky with our ST. 45,000 miles and it's never been back to the dealership for anything. I...

It's always great to hear that the forum is useful for folks. That makes me feel really good. I'm glad you got what you needed. Oh, and it was awesome meeting you at the SEMA show Si. I'm glad we were able to make that happen.

We got so lucky with our 2020 Explorer that I felt confident buying a Ford based RV. You just never know who is going to get the short straw. :(

What makes matters worse is that the lemon law does not apply to this type of vehicle in AZ. I am now at Ford's mercy. :banghead:

We bought a 2024 E450 based RV. It threw a CEL for evaporative emissions. After 4 weeks at Ford they thought it was going home with me today. Unfortunately they cleared a code that came up when the engine was warmed up, but it is now throwing a code when it runs through its self test when it's...

If you need the full length of the threads couldnt you pull the valve cover and weld in an angled extension tube to place the cap farther inboard?

That looks badass inside and out!

Looks like a lot of fun. Nice trail. Are you going to SEMA this year?

One of our members just had a set sent to him from the guy who makes them. I hope someone will jump in here to confirm, or at least give you the info for the builder.

The more blowby the engine makes the more oil the can will collect. I wouldn't hesitate to add a catch can at this point. I don't recall the brand I used on my ST, but it was a direct fit and an easy installation. Any catch can that is made for your specific application would make life easier...

Can't get rid of it, I may need it one day. Cleans garage and dumps boxes of stuff. Two weeks later... Dang I knew I shouldn't have gotten rid of that widget, now I have to buy a new one!

My Ram is averaging about the same mileage. It's' a 2003 and it just hit 200,000. The 7000lb Ram gets better mileage though. ;)

Good idea. (edit) I just gave a review.

Just guessing that the IAC may be dirty and not functioning properly. https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/just-cleaned-iac.137563/ https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/iac-valve-cleaning-thread-w-pics.84220/

Yes any '94 will work. In fact you can use newer engines as well and just swap your manifold and sensors over. From what I recall the heads will bolt up as is, they are just have smaller combustion chambers which will make more compression and could cause you to need to run premium to keep it...

Whoops make for some great memories. I'm glad you got it unstuck and saved face in front of your girlfriend's dad. :D

The latest version doesn't give you the ability to switch back. Not happy. :(

Thanking those who fought and died serving our great country. Condolences to the Gold Star families.

I figured out why the map is black. I have always used dark mode with my phone. Ford Pass is the only app which has an issue with it. I switched out of dark mode and the proper map details are visible. PITA. Dark mode is much easier on my eyes. Ford should make the app play well with dark mode...

Nice work Steve.:chug:

That's a great resource for RVs as well. Thanks for the link.

Yes it is an interferance engine. Valves will contact pistons if timing chain breaks or goes out of time. The pistons are aluminum. If you're lucky only the valves will be damaged not the pistons. Here is a thread describing the timing chain replacement. Obviously you will have to go farther to...
