    Hi,

    i'm planning to venture into a project. Since malakas sa gas yung expedition, i'm thinking of changing the engine into a diesel powered one. Has anyone tried this? Appreciate your infos.

    Thanks.

    I'd prefer to keep the gas engine then convert it to run on LPG.

    Makina ng Alterra o makina ng truck?

    Parang masyadong delikado for an Expedition. Maraming risk talaga eh, it's not as simple as swapping in a B16 on a Civic.

    LPG nalang or just sell the ride

    I was looking at 2nd hand f150 pick ups at $ulit a while ago (alternate buy instead of a brand new ranger wildtrak) and i saw an add for engine replacement service for expedition, e150, etc. Price adverised was 85k labor only. What's your donor engine, v8 lc200?

    Kung ako benta na lang expedition then bili ng diesel suv. Wala ka pa sakit ng ulo.

    Had seen it done before yung nagpapacar wash ako. The person bought a flooded expedition for 80k (not running). Replaced the whole thing with diesel. His electrician rechipped the ecu to make everything work. Total damage 250k for the conversion and almost a month daw tinapos kasi trial and error sa check engine.

    When I asked the guy why bother with the conversion... He said iba pa rin daw riding comfort ng expedition from other 2nd hand diesel suv within the 500k mark.

    What is the need for the ecu kung pinalitan ng ibang engine? And you cannot reprogram that one easily, yung parameters na acceptable ng ecu ay para sa ford, not sa ibang engine.

    Ang ginawa dyan ay ni-abandon yung ecu and disable the other electronic capabilities of the car.

    A/t tranny, srs, abs, etc. Hindi tutugma sa program kaya daw electrician na ang gumalaw.

    Di yan kaya ng electrician. Ang ecu paps ay microcontroller, ang kailangan nyan ay programmer. Chances are ang ginawa nyan ay either binigyan ng dummy inputs yung mga params na binibigay ng original engine or inalis na totally yung ecu.

    Ang Automatic transmission control ng expedition is also controlled by PCM, kagaya ng TCC- Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid, Shift Solenoid Assembly etc...lahat po sila ay dependent sa reading ng MAF sensor, IAT Sensor, Crankshaft sensor atbp kung kelan sila mag-a-upshift or downshift...once may nagtanong na sa akin kung ano daw ang gagawin nya para makuha nya ang 140kph ng Expedition converted to diesel engine kasi since naconvert ang engine nya his topspeed is hardly reached 100kph only
    All I say is return the original engine

    I really don't know kasi yun lang explanation sakin nung mayari. Ang claim lang niya, working daw lahat ng electrical assist. Sa engine, walang ecu since old school diesel kinabit.

    Yan nga rin paps ang worry ko kung magpakabit ng diesel engine sa ford, wala naman tayo basis para masabi na working nga talaga lahat ng electrical assist.

    Sa bagay pwede magkaleche Leche electronics. Did not ask kung kanya kanya ecu sa srs a/t abs etc. Pero sa tingin ko nagpalit ng ecu ng a/t para match sa engine.
