1997 FORD EXPEDITION LEAKING ANTIFREEZE

You have to remove the parts to see where the leak is. Remove the manifold carefully to preserve the evidence. You can check the manifold mating surface with a straightedge. You may find the leak is actually in the head gasket. Make him show you the warpage before letting him sell you new parts. A metal part like the head can be resurfaced at a machine shop.

1997 ford expedition security light flashin . its had a steering column replaced,and a stereo replaced before I bought it. cleared codes snap on code reader ,then weeks later, did it again.

Check the sensor ring on the column that's around the cylinder for a bad wire and check the receiver plug and antenna also check your key if it has a battery and the fuse for the pats system download the manual from ford owners. Com and go to roadside emergencies and your fuse box diagrams are in there and the fuse values and relay locations something is loose or corroded clean all associated with the pats system and write everything down that you did so things can be ruled out also check the column wire connections all the way down to the floor

Get your car to a transmission shop right away! You may have not damaged it beyond repair, but you will soon if you keep doing what you say you're doing to it.

I blew out the #3 spark plug on a 97 ford expidition with the 5.4 motor. I took it to a shop and they tapped it and put in a plug, it would not seal and the plug hit the clyinder they pulled the plug

That shop is responsible for any damage outside of the fix. If the plug hit the piston severe damage may have resulted. Use a magnet to try to remove the broken zerk. Make sure you are using the correct plug.
