Just finished road test after repairs.  All good!  Another wonderful repair by Papa Smurff.

The Expedition is coming along.  All plugs are in and coils bolted down.  While in this vehicle doing the tuneup, several vacuum lines were found to be damaged or deteriorated.  Our Technician repaired or replaced all necessary lines.  While removing the right rear coils, the tech was sprayed with fuel.  The fuel rail bolt wasn’t [...]
