2004 Ford Excursion 6.0l 4wd Super Low Mileage on 2040-cars
Klamath Falls, Oregon, United States
|
I purchased this 2004 Excursion brand new. I planned to keep it but ten years later my situation has changed and it needs to find a new home. Here is a list of the items that have been done to both upgrade its abilities and to fix Ford issues mainly with the 6.0L.
Starting with the engine. Professional rework of the engine to include ARB Head Studs, Liberator External Oil Cooler, upgraded FICM and Bulletproof EGR Cooler. If you have done any research on the Ford 6.0L engine these modifications are necessary to have confidence that the vehicle can be used for daily driving as well as towing. Talk to a diesel mechanic, the 6.0L is an excellent engine once these modifications are completed. These upgrades cost over $5000. Also added is a AMS Bypass Oil Filtration System. This system takes a small amount of oil from the top of the oil filter and runs it through a 2 micron AMS Filter. This system is in operation in parallel with the Ford oil filtration system but has a much more efficient filter. Ultra clean oil means super long engine life. AirAid air filtration system. The better an engine breathes the more power it can develop. The oil pans on the transmission and the rear differential have been replaced by Mag-Hytec Units. These oil pans almost double the oil capacity of the reservoirs. More oil equals lower temperatures. The differential cover also has a dipstick that also contains a magnet so you can see if there are any problems. Batteries have been replaced with Odyssey AGM Batteries. These are the best batteries made today for an automobile. Firestone Air Bags with an on board air compressor allow for height adjustment when pulling a trailer. I did not have to use much air pressure but I believe the ride was improved by the addition of the air bags. New Monroe Shocks on all four corners and front tie rod dampener assembly ~500 miles ago. New Napa Super Premium rotors and brakes on the front axle ~ 200 miles ago. I replaced the Ford 4WD front locking hubs with high quality Warn Locking Hubs due to having intermittent operation of the Ford Hubs in winter. It is not acceptable to me to have a feature unavailable due to the OEM's design being inadequate. The hubs do have to be engaged manually however the vehicle can be used in the 2 wheel drive mode with the hubs left locked in and there is no problem doing that. I have installed the following Autometer Gauges to be able to monitor engine, transmission and rear differential parameters. Engine exhaust temperature, engine turbo boost pressure, engine oil pressure, transmission oil temperature to the cooler and rear differential temperature. I work as an operator at a power plant and am able to monitor conditions around the plant with installed instrumentation. Ford did not have the instrumentation that I believe is necessary to monitor your vehicle especially while towing so I added it. Brand new windshield as of 9/8/2014 thanks to a big rock. This vehicle is what I would consider barely broken in. It is ready to go and I doubt you could find a more capable Excursion anywhere. I have a lot of pride in the work that has been done on this vehicle. There are a few minor dings and scratches, very minor and they do not take away from the vehicle at all. If you have any questions or need more information please let me know. . On Sep-14-14 at 10:22:12 PDT, seller added the following information: Couple more items for the Excursion: A Superchips Tuner and Code Reader is included with the vehicle. I used the "economy" mode mainly with the truck and when rolling down the highway was able to get 18 mpg at 65 mph. Not to bad for a rig of this size. There is a Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller that is located between the oil pressure and differential temperature gauges also goes with the truck. Once again if you need anymore pictures of anything please ask. All maintenance records, window sticker, and receipts will go with the vehicle if you want them. There has never been any smoking in the rig. |

Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."
Ford F-150 Tremor to pace NASCAR Truck Series this weekend
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ford's bro-tastic F-150 Tremor will be pacing this weekend's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Michigan International Speedway. The Tremor fills a gap in the Ford F-Series lineup that we imagine the NASCAR set have clamored for - a hot-rod pickup truck.
Where the F-150 Raptor is designed to go quick on anything, the Tremor and its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 are designed to tackle the road. The 365-horsepower and 420-pound-foot EcoBoost is unchanged from the rest of the F-150 line, but it combines the shortest drive ratio with the lightest two-door body, making it a bit of hot rod.
Ford will be offering hot laps with Michigan native Brad Keselowski behind the wheel of the Tremor for fans that arrive in the Irish Hills on August 14. The main showing for the new pickup will be the August 17 race, though, when it'll lead the field at the start of the race and through cautions.
James Franco and tiger tease Ford Super Bowl commercial
Sat, 01 Feb 2014Ford has just released a teaser for its Super Bowl ad, and unlike just about every other automaker, it seems that the Blue Oval is going to make us wait until Sunday to see the full spot. The teaser is, um, strange.
It stars James Franco, who believes he is Ron Riggle, the comedian, Fox NFL Sunday host and retired Marine lieutenant colonel. There's also a tiger. The vague spot has Franco claiming that "this is no ordinary commercial." You'll note on the bottom right, there's a Ford logo and the hashtag #nearlydouble.
According to Automotive News, it's part of a massive viral effort being pushed forward by Ford and its dealerships. Ford sent different teasers and "vignettes" to dealership employees and asked them to share them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, in the hopes of creating a viral effect.
