I own a 1998 Expedition XLT with 80K miles. The vehicle often
wants to idle at 1,500 or 3,000 rpm (depending on it's mood, I
guess) while driving. The problem is most notable in warm or hot
weather, and almost goes away when it's very cold out. I replaced
the idle air mixture unit (proper name?), which fixed it for about a
week, then the problem resumed.
Secondly, the vehicle's front heating system is very weak - it
will take 1/2 hour at full blast to make the driver even remotely
comfortable. The rear unit appears to function normally.
Could these problems be related? I am very limited on $ and
need to keep this vehicle for a long time, but these problems make
it very unpleasant for me and the kids to ride in. Any and all help
is GREATLY appreciated.
Jim
